CVE-2026-42608

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.0-beta.2, there is a Path Traversal vulnerability within the FormFlash core component. By manipulating the session_id (passed as __form-flash-id in POST requests), an unauthenticated attacker can traverse the filesystem to create arbitrary directories and write an index.yaml file containing attacker-controlled data. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized modification of application behavior, potential data integrity issues, and service disruption in production environments. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.0.0-beta.2.

Summary		(es) Grav es una plataforma web basada en archivos. Antes de la versión 2.0.0-beta.2, existe una vulnerabilidad de salto de ruta dentro del componente central FormFlash. Al manipular el session_id (pasado como __form-flash-id en las solicitudes POST), un atacante no autenticado puede recorrer el sistema de archivos para crear directorios arbitrarios y escribir un archivo index.yaml que contiene datos controlados por el atacante. Esta vulnerabilidad puede conducir a la modificación no autorizada del comportamiento de la aplicación, posibles problemas de integridad de los datos y la interrupción del servicio en entornos de producción. Esta vulnerabilidad está corregida en la versión 2.0.0-beta.2.
