Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Security Kit module is installedCheck for the presence of the Security Kit module in your Drupal installation. Common paths: modules/contrib/seckit or modules/seckit. You can also run: drush pm-list --status=enabled | grep -i seckitAffected if The Security Kit module is present and enabled in the Drupal installation
-
Determine installed Security Kit versionCheck the module version by examining the seckit.info.yml file in the module directory, or run: drush pm-releases seckitAffected if The installed version is lower than 2.0.3 (e.g., 2.0.2, 2.0.1, 1.x series, or any version below 2.0.3)
-
Confirm module is processing HTTP requestsReview the Security Kit module configuration at /admin/config/security/seckit or via drush config-get seckit.settingsAffected if The Security Kit module is enabled and actively processing HTTP requests, which makes it reachable by crafted requests
The environment is affected if the Drupal Security Kit module is installed and enabled with a version lower than 2.0.3.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
