CVE-2026-114529 Drupal CVE debrief

Who should care

Drupal administrators and security teams should assess exposure and prioritize remediation efforts. Site owners using the CSV Field module should verify their version and ensure proper user role configurations.

Why it matters

A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in the Drupal CSV Field module, which enables users to upload CSV files and display them as interactive tables. The module does not sufficiently escape CSV cell and header values before passing them to the DataTables library. However, exploitation is mitigated as an attacker must have a role with permission to create or edit content containing a CSV field. Defenders should prioritize verifying exposure in their Drupal installations, especially those using the CSV Field module, and ensure that user roles and permissions are properly configured to limit who can create or edit content with CSV fields.

• Defenders must verify exposure in their Drupal installations
• User role and permission configurations require review
• Suspicious activity related to CSV field usage should be monitored

Technical summary
