SA-CONTRIB-2026-282: Critical severity composer/drupal/fasttoggle vulnerability
This module enables you to quickly toggle the publication status, promotion and stickiness of nodes, and the publication status of comments, from links on the page. The module doesn't sufficiently check access to the entity being toggled, under the scenario where a user with the "Use Fasttoggle" permission submits a request to the toggle URL for any node or comment regardless of their permission to update that entity. For example, such a user could publish an unpublished draft they are not allowed to view. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "Use Fasttoggle".

Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
Who can exploit this issue?
A user must have a role granted the "Use Fasttoggle" permission. That user can submit requests to toggle URLs for nodes or comments even when they do not have permission to update the targeted entity.
What could an authorized Fasttoggle user do to content they cannot normally manage?
They can change node publication status, promotion, or stickiness, and can change comment publication status. For example, they could publish an unpublished draft that they are not allowed to view.
What is the immediate mitigation if a fix cannot be applied?
Review roles with the "Use Fasttoggle" permission and remove that permission from users who should not be able to toggle any node or comment. The vulnerability is mitigated when an attacker does not have that permission.
