Project: Edit in-place field [1]
Date: 2026-August-05
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 14 ∕ 25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Affected versions: <2.1.1
CVE IDs: CVE-2026-18985
Description: 
This module provides formatters to allow in-place editing in a View or other
display (full content, teaser...).

The module doesn't sufficiently check access when editing entities. A
malicious user could craft requests to allow them to modify any field on any
entity.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission "edit in place field editing permission".

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

 * If you use the Edit in-place field module for Drupal, upgrade to 2.1.1 [3]

Reported By: 
 * Drew Webber (mcdruid) [4] of the Drupal Security Team

Fixed By: 
 * Bálint Nagy (nagy.balint) [5]

Coordinated By: 
 * Neil Drumm (drumm) [6] of the Drupal Security Team
 * Greg Knaddison (greggles) [7] of the Drupal Security Team
