CVE-2017-6923: Access bypass in Drupal 8 views
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.5 v3.0)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 2.0% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2019-01-22 · updated 2026-06-17
- Weakness: CWE-862
Description
In Drupal 8.x prior to 8.3.7 When creating a view, you can optionally use Ajax to update the displayed data via filter parameters. The views subsystem/module did not restrict access to the Ajax endpoint to only views configured to use Ajax. This is mitigated if you have access restrictions on the view. It is best practice to always include some form of access restrictions on all views, even if you are using another module to display them.
Affected products
- Drupal: from 8.0.0 through 8.3.7
