Drupal 7.x < 7.82 / 8.9.x < 8.9.17 / 9.1.x < 9.1.11 / 9.2.x < 9.2.2 Drupal Vulnerability (SA-CORE-2021-004)

high Nessus Plugin ID 151932

Synopsis

A PHP application running on the remote web server is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the instance of Drupal running on the remote web server is 7.x prior to 7.82, 8.9.x prior to 8.9.17, 9.1.x prior to 9.1.11, or 9.2.x prior to 9.2.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

- The Drupal project uses the pear Archive_Tar library, which has released a security update that impacts Drupal. The vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that Drupal core's use of the Archive_Tar library is not vulnerable, as it does not permit symlinks. Exploitation may be possible if contrib or custom code uses the library to extract tar archives (for example .tar, .tar.gz, .bz2, or .tlz) which come from a potentially untrusted source. This advisory is not covered by Drupal Steward. (CVE-2021-32610)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Drupal version 7.82 / 8.9.17 / 9.1.11 / 9.2.2 or later.
