Description

In some conditions, drupal content moderation fails to check a users access to use certain transitions, leading to an access bypass.

Affected versions

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.

drupal/core Packagist → 8.5.8

composer
composer require drupal/core:^8.5.8
