CVE-2019-6340 Scanner Detail

Drupal Core is a highly renowned content management system (CMS) that enables users to create dynamic and interactive websites with ease. The CMS is used by millions of users worldwide for various purposes such as e-commerce, government portals, social networking, etc. It has a vast array of features built-in and offers additional functionality through various third-party modules. The CMS is free, open-source, and licensed under GPLv2. 

The CVE-2019-6340 vulnerability detected in Drupal Core can allow arbitrary PHP code execution in some cases. It occurs due to the improper sanitization of data from non-form sources in Drupal 8.5.x before 8.5.11 and Drupal 8.6.x before 8.6.10. This vulnerability can impact sites that have the Drupal 8 core RESTful Web Services (rest) module enabled and that allow PATCH or POST requests or have another web services module enabled such as JSON:API in Drupal 8 or Services or RESTful Web Services in Drupal 7. 

Exploiting this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized code execution, which can cause significant harm to the system, including theft of sensitive data, modification of data, and complete takeover of the site. The potential attacker only needs to send a maliciously crafted request to the targeted server to carry out this attack.
