Project: Drupal core [1]<br>
Date: 2018-March-28<br>
Security risk: *Highly critical* 21∕25<br>
AC:None/A:None/CI:All/II:All/<wbr>E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2]<br>
Vulnerability: Remote Code Execution<br>
<br>
Description:<br>
CVE: CVE-2018-7600<br>
<br>
A remote code execution vulnerability exists within multiple subsystems of<br>
Drupal 7.x and 8.x.  This potentially allows attackers to exploit multiple<br>
attack vectors on a Drupal site, which could result in the site being<br>
completely compromised.<br>
<br>
The security team has written an  FAQ [3] about this issue.<br>
<br>
Solution:<br>
Upgrade to the most recent version of Drupal 7 or 8 core.<br>
<br>
  * *If you are running 7.x, upgrade to Drupal 7.58 [4].* (If you are unable<br>
    to update immediately, you can attempt to apply this patch [5] to fix<br>
the<br>
    vulnerability until such time as you are able to completely update.)<br>
  * *If you are running 8.5.x, upgrade to Drupal 8.5.1 [6].* (If you are<br>
    unable to update immediately, you can attempt to apply this patch [7] to<br>
    fix the vulnerability until such time as you are able to completely<br>
    update.)<br>
<br>
Drupal 8.3.x and 8.4.x are no longer supported and we don't normally provide<br>
security releases for unsupported minor releases [8]. However, given the<br>
potential severity of this issue, we /are/ providing 8.3.x and 8.4.x<br>
releases<br>
that includes the fix for sites which have not yet had a chance to update to<br>
8.5.0.<br>
<br>
Your site's update report page will recommend the 8.5.x release even if you<br>
are on 8.3.x or 8.4.x. Please take the time to update to a supported version<br>
after installing this security update.<br>
<br>
  * If you are running 8.3.x, upgrade to Drupal 8.3.9 [9] or apply this<br>
patch<br>
    [10].<br>
  * If you are running 8.4.x, upgrade to Drupal 8.4.6 [11] or apply<br>
thispatch<br>
    [12].<br>
<br>
This issue also affects Drupal 8.2.x and earlier, which are no longer<br>
supported. If you are running any of these versions of Drupal 8, update to a<br>
more recent release and then follow the instructions above.<br>
<br>
This issue also affects Drupal 6.  Drupal 6 is End of Life. For more<br>
information on Drupal 6 support please contact a D6LTS vendor [13].<br>
