Project: Libraries UI [1]
Version: 8.x-1.0
Date: 2023-June-28
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11∕25
AC:None/A:None/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Description: 
This module enables a UI to display all libraries provided by modules and
themes on the Drupal site.

The module doesn't sufficiently protect the libraries reporting page. It
curently is using the 'access content' permission and not a proper
administrative/access permission.

The vulnerability/library information can be exploited by simply
visiting/knowing the url of the reporting page. The solution is to protect
the page via a module specific permission that must be granted by an
administrative user.

Solution: 
Install the latest version of 8.x-1.x or upgrade to 8.x-2.x:

   * If you use the Libraries UI module 8.x-1.0, upgrade to Libraries UI
     8.x-1.1 [3]
   * The vulnerability does not affect the Libraries UI module 8.x-2.x series.
