The mentioned CVE-2025-XXXX is a Missing Authorization vulnerability in the Drupal Acquia DAM module. This flaw allows an attacker to perform forceful browsing, also known as an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) attack. The module fails to properly check access permissions for certain privileged routes or assets. Consequently, an unauthenticated or low-privileged user can directly access administrative URLs or restricted resources by manipulating the browser’s address bar or crafting direct HTTP requests. This bypasses the intended authorization controls, potentially granting unauthorized access to sensitive data or administrative functions within the Drupal site’s integration with Acquia DAM. The vulnerability is present in all versions from the module’s inception up to, but not including, version 1.1.5.
Platform: Drupal Module
Version: <1.1.5
Vulnerability: Missing Authorization
Severity: High
date: 2024-10-30
Prediction: 2024-11-13
What Undercode Say:
curl -I http://target-site/admin/config/media/acquia_dam grep -r "access callback" modules/acquia_dam/
// Example of a vulnerable hook_menu() entry
$items['admin/config/media/acquia_dam/settings'] = array(
'' => 'Acquia DAM Settings',
'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form',
'page arguments' => array('acquia_dam_admin_settings'),
'access arguments' => array(), // Missing access check
);
How Exploit:
Directly browsing to `/admin/config/media/acquia_dam/settings` or other administrative paths without authentication.
Protection from this CVE:
Upgrade to version 1.1.5. Implement proper access checks in hook_menu() and hook_permission().
Impact:
Unauthorized access to configuration, potential module compromise.
