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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the GDPR module installation directory
    Check the Drupal modules directory for the 'gdpr' folder. Common paths include /modules/gdpr, /sites/all/modules/gdpr, or /web/modules/gdpr depending on your installation structure.
    Affected if The module folder does not exist, meaning GDPR module is not installed.
  2. Determine the installed GDPR module version
    Open the gdpr.info.yml or gdpr.module file within the gdpr module directory and read the 'version' or 'core' and package information. Alternatively, run 'drush pm-list --type=module --filter=gdpr' if Drush is available, or query the Drupal database system table for the gdpr module entry.
    Affected if Unable to retrieve version information indicates the module may not be installed.
  3. Compare installed version against affected ranges
    Compare the version found in step 2 to the affected ranges: versions 3.0.0 and 3.1.0 through 3.1.1. The environment is vulnerable if the version is 3.0.0 or between 3.1.0 and 3.1.1 inclusive.
    Affected if The installed version falls within 3.0.0 or 3.1.0-3.1.1.
  4. Verify the module is enabled for the vulnerability to apply
    Confirm the GDPR module status is 'Enabled' in Drupal admin at /admin/modules, via Drush with 'drush pm-list --status=enabled --type=module | grep gdpr', or by checking the 'status' field in the system database table for the gdpr module.
    Affected if The module is installed but disabled; the CSRF vulnerability cannot be exploited if the module is not active.

The environment is affected if the GDPR module is enabled and the installed version is 3.0.0 or between 3.1.0 and 3.1.1.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 3.0.1 / 3.1.2 or later
Fixed in 3.0.13.1.2
Interim mitigation

Update the Drupal General Data Protection Regulation module to version 3.0.1 or 3.1.2 or later to obtain the CSRF token validation fix.

Recommended fix High confidence

Upgrade to GDPR module 3.0.1 or 3.1.2 (or later)

  1. 1. Back up your Drupal site database and files.
  2. 2. If using Composer for Drupal module management, run: composer require drupal/gdpr:^3.0.1 or composer require drupal/gdpr:^3.1.2
  3. 3. Alternatively, download the GDPR module version 3.0.1 or 3.1.2 from www.drupal.org/project/gdpr
  4. 4. Install the updated module following standard Drupal module update procedures.
  5. 5. Clear Drupal caches: drush cr all or through admin menu at /admin/config/development/performance
  6. 6. Verify the update was successful by checking the module version at /admin/modules
