Project: Entity cache [1]
Date: 2023-September-27
Security risk: *Critical* 16∕25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:All/II:All/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
Vulnerability: Information disclosure

Description: 
Entity Cache puts core entities into Drupal's cache API.

A recent release of the module does not sanitize certain inputs
appropriately. This can lead to unintended behavior when wildcard characters
are included in the input.

The impact of this bug should be relatively minor in most configurations, but
in worst-case scenarios it could lead to significant Access Bypass.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Entity cache module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Entity 
cache
     7.x-1.7 [3].
