CVE-2015-5499: The Navigate module for Drupal does not properly check permissions, which allows remote authenticated users...

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-5499 affects Drupal sites using the contributed Navigate module. An authenticated user with the "navigate view" permission could perform actions beyond intended access, including modifying custom widgets and creating widget database records. The bundle does not provide affected versions, CVSS, or a named fixed release. Exposure is likely limited to Drupal installations using the Navigate module where non-administrative authenticated users have the "navigate view" permission. The source bundle does not identify exact affected versions, deployment prevalence, or whether the module remains in use. Prioritize review where Drupal sites allow broad authenticated access or self-service user accounts. Business impact is likely configuration and content integrity rather than full system compromise, but evidence is incomplete. Mitigation focus: Review the Drupal advisory for fixed versions and vendor guidance.; Inventory Drupal sites for the Navigate module.; Restrict "navigate view" to trusted administrative roles..
