CVE-2026-122058 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-04

Drupal's Simple OAuth module implements an OAuth 2.0 authorization server that protects Drupal instances with access tokens. Users with permissions to create or edit OAuth consumers can configure malicious consumers to obtain tokens with elevated privileges, potentially granting themselves administrative access or the ability to access the site as other users.

## How to fix

- Packagist:Https://Packages.Drupal.Org/8 Drupal/Simple Oauth: upgrade to 5.2.6 or later

Restrict the "Add consumer entities" and "Update own consumer entities" permissions to trusted roles only, and audit existing consumer configurations for unauthorized privilege escalation.

## Technical details

The Simple OAuth module fails to sufficiently restrict access to consumer configuration, allowing users with "Add consumer entities" or "Update own consumer entities" permissions to create or modify consumers with elevated privileges. An authenticated attacker with these permissions can configure a malicious consumer to request tokens with privileges beyond their own role, leading to privilege escalation or account takeover. Fixes are available in versions 5.2.6, 6.0.10, and 6.1.4.

## Affected products

- Drupal Simple OAuth before 5.2.6, 6.0.0 before 6.0.10, 6.1.0 before 6.1.4
