Drupal core - Critical - Remote code execution - SA-CORE-2020-012

Project: Drupal core
Date: 2020-November-18
Security risk: Critical 17∕25 
Vulnerability: Remote code execution
CVE IDs: CVE-2020-13671

Description

Drupal core does not properly sanitize certain filenames on uploaded files, which can lead to files being interpreted as the incorrect extension and served as the wrong MIME type or executed as PHP for certain hosting configurations.

Solution

Install the latest version:

If you are using Drupal 9.0, update to Drupal 9.0.8
If you are using Drupal 8.9, update to Drupal 8.9.9
If you are using Drupal 8.8 or earlier, update to Drupal 8.8.11
If you are using Drupal 7, update to Drupal 7.74

Versions of Drupal 8 prior to 8.8.x are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage.

Additionally, it's recommended that you audit all previously uploaded files to check for malicious extensions. Look specifically for files that include more than one extension, like .php.txt or .html.gif. Pay specific attention to the following file extensions, which should be considered dangerous even when followed by another extension:

  • phar
  • php
  • pl
  • py
  • cgi
  • asp
  • js
  • html
  • htm

(Note that the list is not exhaustive.)
