Getgrav Grav vulnerabilities

The getgrav/grav-plugin-login Composer plugin before 3.9.1 (used by Grav) compares password reset and account activation tokens using a non-constant-time === string comparison instead of hash_equals() in classes/Controller.php (taskReset()) and login.php (activation handler). Because the token-submission endpoint (taskReset) also lacks rate limiting, an attacker could in principle send repeated token guesses against a known username and use the timing differences to attempt to recover a valid token, though the vendor rates the practical exploitability as low and no end-to-end network exploit has been demonstrated.

Grav CMS before 2.0.16 contains a symlink following vulnerability in Scheduler Job::createLockFile() that allows local attackers to overwrite arbitrary files by pre-creating symlinks at predictable lock file paths in the world-writable temp directory. Attackers can place a symlink at the predictable lock path pointing to any file the web server process can write to, and the next scheduled job run will follow the symlink and overwrite the target file's content with the job ID string.

Grav before 2.0.16 contains a path traversal vulnerability in MediaUploadTrait::deleteFile() that allows authenticated users with media management permissions to delete arbitrary files by supplying filenames with directory traversal sequences. The method validates only the basename portion of the filename while preserving unvalidated directory paths containing ../ sequences that are passed to unlink(), enabling deletion of files outside the intended media storage directory.

Grav before 3.9.2 fails to validate untrusted Host headers in the sendInvitationEmail() function when constructing token-bearing invitation links. Attackers can manipulate the Host header to poison invitation links and redirect users to attacker-controlled domains, bypassing the require_trusted_host protection which only covers password reset flows.

Grav Flex Objects plugin versions 1.4.0 through 1.4.7 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the flex-objects shortcode that allows users with page-edit access to render any registered Flex collection without permission checks. Attackers can place the shortcode in published pages to expose sensitive directory contents including user account information, bypassing the authorize ACL enforced in the admin panel.

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.7, Grav Blueprint::dynamicData() in system/src/Grav/Common/Data/Blueprint.php sends an editor-controlled Class::method provider and arguments to call_user_func_array() without rejecting dangerous callback parameters. An account with admin.pages or api.pages.write can use Grav\Common\Utils::arrayFilterRecursive() as a trampoline with system as the callback, place a command in page frontmatter, and execute that command as the web server user when the page is viewed. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.7.

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.4, the Grav .htaccess and webserver-configs/htaccess.txt security rules omit the Apache [NC] flag and therefore compare sensitive directory and file-extension patterns case-sensitively. On a case-insensitive filesystem, an unauthenticated requester can use uppercase directory or extension variants to bypass the rules and retrieve files under user/accounts or user/config, including password hashes and security configuration. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.4.

Grav Login Plugin adds login, basic ACL, and session wide messages to Grav. Prior to 3.8.11, the Grav Login plugin login.regenerate2FASecret task checks only that the pending-session user exists rather than requiring $user->authorized. After submitting a victim's correct password, an attacker can invoke taskRegenerate2FASecret() during the pending TOTP challenge, overwrite twofa_secret, read the replacement secret from the response, calculate a valid code, and complete authentication without the victim's second factor. This issue is fixed in version 3.8.11.

The Grav API plugin (getgrav/grav-plugin-api, bundled with Grav's admin-next/API stack) before 1.0.14 fails to enforce the authorize requirement in MenubarController::executeAction(). While the GET /menubar/items listing endpoint correctly filters menubar items via userPassesAuthorize(), the POST /api/v1/menubar/actions/{plugin}/{action} endpoint only checks the baseline api.access permission and never evaluates the authorize field a plugin registered for that action. Any authenticated caller with api.access can therefore invoke a privileged menubar action directly, bypassing the intended authorization. No plugin bundled with core Grav currently registers a privileged authorize handler, so on a stock install the impact is latent; the flaw affects any first- or third-party plugin relying on the documented authorize semantics.
