Project: Editoria11y Accessibility Checker [1]
Project machine name: editoria11y
Date: 2026-September-23
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11 ∕ 25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:None/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Affected versions: <2.2.23 || >=3.0.0 <3.0.9
CVE IDs: CVE-2026-96390
Description: 
This module runs a client-side accessibility checker that automatically
reports results to dashboard views over an API.

The module incorrectly described a permission as a "view" permission when it
grants edit and delete access to module data, resulting in a potential access
bypass.

Solution: 
If you use the Editoria11y module, update the module and *review
permissions*.

 * If you use the Editoria11y module version 2.2.x, upgrade to editoria11y
   2.2.23 [3].
 * If you use the Editoria11y module version 3.0.x, upgrade to editoria11y
   3.0.9 [4].

*Review permissions:* Make sure anonymous or untrusted authenticated users
have not been given permission to use the checker. The permission is labeled
as:

 * /View Editoria11y checker/ up to and including 2.2.22/3.0.8, and
 * /Run Editoria11y checker and report results/ with 2.2.23/3.0.9.
