Project: Drupal core [1]
Date: 2021-September-15
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 10∕25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

CVE IDs: CVE-2020-13676
Description: 
The QuickEdit module does not properly check access to fields in some
circumstances, which can lead to unintended disclosure of field data.

Sites are only affected if the QuickEdit module (which comes with the
Standard profile) is installed.

This advisory is not covered by Drupal Steward [3].

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you are using Drupal 9.2, update to Drupal 9.2.6 [4].
   * If you are using Drupal 9.1, update to Drupal 9.1.13 [5].
   * If you are using Drupal 8.9, update to Drupal 8.9.19 [6].

Versions of Drupal 8 prior to 8.9.x and versions of Drupal 9 prior to 9.1.x
are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage.

Drupal 7 core does not include the QuickEdit module and therefore is not
affected.

Uninstalling the QuickEdit module will also mitigate the vulnerability. Site
owners may wish to consider this option as the QuickEdit module will be
removed from core in Drupal 10 [7].
