Project: Drupal core Date: 2025-November-12 Security risk: Moderately critical 10 ∕ 25 AC:Basic/A:None/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All Vulnerability: Defacement Affected versions: >= 8.0.0 < 10.4.9 || >= 10.5.0 < 10.5.6 || >= 11.0.0 < 11.1.9 || >= 11.2.0 < 11.2.8 CVE IDs: CVE-2025-13082 Description: By generating and tricking a user into visiting a malicious URL, an attacker can perform site defacement. The defacement is not stored and is only present when the URL has been crafted for that purpose. Only the defacement is present, so no other site content (such as branding) is rendered. Solution: Install the latest version: If you are using Drupal 10.4, update to Drupal 10.4.9 . If you are using Drupal 10.5, update to Drupal 10.5.6 . If you are using Drupal 11.1, update to Drupal 11.1.9 . If you are using Drupal 11.2, update to Drupal 11.2.8 . Drupal 11.0.x, Drupal 10.3.x, and below are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. ( Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)
