CVE-2025-3131
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Drupal ECA: Event - Condition - Action allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects ECA: Event - Condition - Action: from 0.0.0 before 1.1.12, from 2.0.0 before 2.0.16, from 2.1.0 before 2.1.7, from 0.0.0 before 1.2.*.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceCross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Drupal ECA (Event - Condition - Action) module allows attackers to trick authenticated users into executing unintended actions within the ECA workflow engine. This is a standard CSRF attack vector where malicious requests can be forged on behalf of an authenticated administrator.

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.
-
Locate the ECA module installationCheck your Drupal installation for the ECA module directory (commonly in modules/contrib/eca or modules/custom/eca) or query the Drupal system table: SELECT name, filename FROM system WHERE name LIKE '%eca%' AND type = 'module';Affected if ECA module is not found in the Drupal installation
-
Determine installed ECA versionCheck the module's info.yml file (eca.info.yml) in the ECA module directory for the 'version:' field, or run: drush pm:list --filter=eca, or check composer.json in the ECA module folder for the version entry.Affected if Unable to determine the version from module metadata
-
Compare version against vulnerable rangesCheck if the installed version falls into any of these ranges: < 1.1.12, >= 2.0.0 AND < 2.0.16, >= 2.1.0 AND < 2.1.7. Version 1.2.x and later releases are not affected.Affected if Installed version is below 1.1.12, OR between 2.0.0-2.0.15, OR between 2.1.0-2.1.6
-
Verify ECA module is enabledCheck if the ECA module is currently enabled for the site: drush state-get system.module_eca or query the 'system' table for status = 1. CSRF only affects authenticated sessions when the module is active.Affected if ECA module is installed but currently disabled (not active on the site)
Your environment is affected if the Drupal ECA module is installed, enabled, and its version is 1.1.11 or lower, 2.0.0-2.0.15, or 2.1.0-2.1.6, allowing unauthenticated attackers to trick authenticated administrators into performing unintended ECA workflow actions.

dbcve · scoped1.1.122.0.162.1.7
Update the ECA module to version 1.1.12, 2.0.16, 2.1.7, or 1.2.x (or later) depending on the installed branch to obtain the CSRF token protection fixes.
1.1.12 (for 1.x users) OR 2.0.16 (for 2.0.x users) OR 2.1.7 (for 2.1.x users)
- Identify the currently installed ECA module version from Drupal's admin interface or composer.json
- If running a version < 1.1.12 (1.x branch), upgrade to version 1.1.12
- If running version >= 2.0.0 and < 2.0.16 (2.0.x branch), upgrade to version 2.0.16
- If running version >= 2.1.0 and < 2.1.7 (2.1.x branch), upgrade to version 2.1.7
- Upgrade via Composer: composer update drupal/eca --with-all-dependencies OR upload the new version via Drupal's Extend > Install new module interface
- Run database updates if prompted: drush updatedb or via Drupal admin
- Clear Drupal cache: drush cr or via Drupal admin > Performance > Clear all caches
- Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the module version in Drupal's Extend page
