CVE-2026-62231

The Grav API plugin (getgrav/grav-plugin-api) before 1.0.6 contains an authorization bypass: API keys can be created with a restricted scopes array, but the ApiKeyAuthenticator class never reads or enforces these scopes. It loads and returns the owning user's full account object, so a key created with limited scopes (e.g. read-only) can perform any write, delete, or administrative operation the owning user is authorized for. Fixed in 1.0.6.

Summary		(es) El plugin API de Grav (getgrav/grav-plugin-api) anterior a la versión 1.0.6 contiene un bypass de autorización: Las claves API pueden crearse con un array de ámbitos restringidos, pero la clase ApiKeyAuthenticator nunca lee ni aplica estos ámbitos. Carga y devuelve el objeto de cuenta completo del usuario propietario, por lo que una clave creada con ámbitos limitados (por ejemplo, solo lectura) puede realizar cualquier operación de escritura, eliminación o administrativa para la que el usuario propietario esté autorizado. Corregido en la versión 1.0.6.
