CVE-2026-13239
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 · uneditedMissing Authorization vulnerability in Drupal WissKI allows Forceful Browsing. This issue affects WissKI versions: from 0.0.0 to 4.2.0.
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 · moderate confidenceDrupal WissKI versions 0.0.0 through 4.2.0 contain a missing authorization vulnerability that allows forceful browsing, enabling unauthenticated or unauthorized users to access sensitive endpoints or data that should require proper authentication and permission checks.

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.
-
Confirm Drupal WissKI module is installedRun 'drush pm-list --status=enabled' or check the modules directory for the wisski module folder in sites/all/modules or web/modulesAffected if WissKI module is present in the Drupal installation
-
Identify installed WissKI versionRun 'drush pm-info wisski' or check the info file (wisski.info.yml or wisski.info) for the version numberAffected if Version is 4.2.0 or lower (within 0.0.0 through 4.2.0 range)
-
Test for unauthenticated endpoint accessUse a browser or curl to attempt access to common WissKI endpoints (such as wisski/path/* routes, data endpoints, or API paths) without logging inAffected if Sensitive data or endpoints return HTTP 200 without authentication
-
Verify authorization configurationCheck Drupal permissions at /admin/people/permissions for WissKI-specific permissions and review role permissions assigned to anonymous usersAffected if Anonymous or unauthenticated roles have access to sensitive WissKI operations or data views
If WissKI version 4.2.0 or lower is installed AND sensitive endpoints are accessible without authentication, the environment is affected by this missing authorization vulnerability.

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.
From vendor data4.2
Apply the vendor patch or update to a version beyond 4.2.0 that includes proper authorization checks for all sensitive endpoints; if no patch is available, manually audit and enforce access controls on all WissKI routes.
