SA-CONTRIB-2026-205: Critical severity drupal/views_share vulnerability

Published Oct 7, 2026
·
Updated

This module enables you to "share" a view display within another website via an iframe. The module doesn't sufficiently block access to view displays. Although the views data is not displayed, resource-intensive views could still be executed which could affect site performance. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must know the view and display IDs.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What does an attacker need to target a vulnerable view display?

The attacker must know the relevant view ID and display ID. This requirement mitigates the issue but does not prevent execution of a resource-intensive view.

2

What is the practical impact if this is exploited?

The view data is not displayed, but a resource-intensive view can still be executed. Repeated execution could affect site performance.
