# Drupal Field Permissions: incorrect authorization allows forceful browsing of fields

Drupal's Field Permissions module has an incorrect authorization flaw that lets a visitor reach content they should not see by browsing directly to it. The sources do not state what data is exposed beyond that.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed Field Permissions version with `drush pm:list --filter=field_permissions` or by reading composer.lock for `drupal/field_permissions`.
- Confirm whether the site uses field-level permissions on sensitive fields.

## Fix

- Field Permissions versions from 0.0.0 to 1.6.0 are affected; move to a version later than `1.6.0`. The sources do not name the exact fixed version.
