Project: Drupal REST & JSON API Authentication [1]
Date: 2024-May-29
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11∕25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Affected versions: <2.0.13
Description: 
Drupal REST & JSON API Authentication module restricts and secures
unauthorized access to your Drupal site APIs using different authentication
methods including Basic Authentication , API Key Authentication , JWT
Authentication , OAuth Authentication , External / Third-Party Provider
Authentication, etc.

The module doesn't sufficiently control user access when using Basic
Authentication.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the 2.0.x branch, upgrade to Drupal REST & JSON API
     Authentication 2.0.13 [3]
   * If you use the 8.x-1.x branch, upgrade to Drupal REST & JSON API
     Authentication 2.0.13 [4], as the 8.x-1.x branch is now unsupported.
