Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Ghost, a Node.js content management system, has a vulnerability in versions 5.121.0 through 5.130.5 and 6.0.0 through 6.10.3. The flaw in Staff Token authentication handling allows access to certain endpoints that were intended to be accessible only via Staff Session authentication. External systems authenticated with Staff Tokens for Admin/Owner-role users could access these endpoints.

Risk Assessment

The risk is that an attacker or external system with a Staff token for an Admin/Owner account can access sensitive administrative functions, potentially leading to unauthorized content or configuration changes, data integrity compromise, or privilege escalation.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade Ghost to version 5.130.6 or 6.11.0, which contain the fix. Also review access logs for suspicious requests to protected endpoints and consider rotating Staff tokens for Admin/Owner accounts.
