Project: Ultimate Table Field [1]
Date: 2026-September-09
Security risk: *Critical* 15 ∕ 25
AC:None/A:None/CI:None/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Affected versions: <1.1.1 || >=2.0.0 <2.0.1
CVE IDs: CVE-2026-87955
Description: 
The Ultimate Table Field module enables you to store table data in a field
and edit each table cell through a dialog, using cell field plugins such as
text, link, and file.

The module doesn't sufficiently protect the route that opens the cell editor
dialog. The route is accessible to anonymous users, who can open the dialog
for any cell type. The dialog allows uploading files to the server location.

This vulnerability is partially mitigated by the fact that only files with
the pdf, doc and docx extensions are accepted.

Solution: 
Install the latest version and adjust permissions:

 * If you use the 2.x branch of the Ultimate Table Field module , upgrade to
   Ultimate Table Field 2.0.1 [3].
 * If you use the 1.x branch of the Ultimate Table Field module , upgrade to
   Ultimate Table Field 1.1.1 [4].

After updating, grant the new permission /Use the Ultimate Table Field cell
editor/ to every role that edits content containing an Ultimate Table field.
Without it, editors can no longer open the cell editor dialog.

Releases of the 1.0.x branch are not supported and do not receive security
coverage. Upgrade to 1.1.1 or 2.0.1.
