FKIE_CVE-2026-31857

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-03-11 18:16 - Updated: 2026-03-17 14:15
Severity ?
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
Craft is a content management system (CMS). Prior to 5.9.9 and 4.17.4, a Remote Code Execution vulnerability exists in the Craft CMS 5 conditions system. The BaseElementSelectConditionRule::getElementIds() method passes user-controlled string input through renderObjectTemplate() -- an unsandboxed Twig rendering function with escaping disabled. Any authenticated Control Panel user (including non-admin roles such as Author or Editor) can achieve full RCE by sending a crafted condition rule via standard element listing endpoints. This vulnerability requires no admin privileges, no special permissions beyond basic control panel access, and bypasses all production hardening settings (allowAdminChanges: false, devMode: false, enableTwigSandbox: true). Users should update to the patched 5.9.9 or 4.17.4 release to mitigate the issue.
