CVE-2026-6816 Details
Description
An access bypass vulnerability in Drupal TFA Basic Plugins allows users with the administer users permission to view or generate recovery codes for other users. This issue affects TFA Basic Plugins: from 7.x-1.0 through 7.x-1.2.
An access bypass vulnerability exists in the TFA Basic Plugins for Drupal 7, specifically in versions 7.1.0 through 7.1.2. This vulnerability allows users with the 'administer users' permission to access or generate recovery codes for other users. The issue arises because the module does not properly restrict access to sensitive two-factor authentication (TFA) recovery and setup routes, enabling unauthorized users to manipulate or view another user's TFA data.
Users can upgrade to TFA Basic version 7.1.3, available through the HeroDevs Never-Ending Support program.
