Project: Quick Node Clone [1]
Date: 2022-May-04
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 10∕25
AC:Complex/A:Admin/CI:None/II:Some/E:Proof/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Description: 
The module adds a "Clone" tab to a node. When clicked, a new node is created
and fields from the previous node are populated into the new fields. This
module supports paragraphs, groups, and other referenced entities.

The module has a vulnerability which allows attackers to bypass the
protection to clone any group content with an access check. Users are allowed
to copy other group's nodes, and if they do that, the node gets added to
groups they don't have access to.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Quick Node Clone module for Drupal 8.x, upgrade to Quick
     Node Clone 8.x-1.15 [3]
