## What is DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-047?

DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-047 is a vulnerability in drupal/content_moderation_notifications, published on 27 Sep 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

This module enables notifications to be sent to all users of a particular role, or to the content's author when a piece of content is transitioned from one state to another via core's content\_moderation module.

The module doesn't sufficiently check access to content when sending notifications.  
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have been assigned to receive notifications for the given content. Additionally, only data sent in the email is visible, so the attacker cannot access the content on the site.

What it is: DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-047 is a vulnerability in drupal/content_moderation_notifications, published on 27 Sep 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-047 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: drupal/content_moderation_notifications. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
