CVE-2026-72830

The Grav API plugin before version 1.0.3 fails to sanitize SVG files uploaded via the POST /api/v1/media endpoint. The processUploadedFile() method only validates the file extension and does not call Security::sanitizeSVG(), allowing an authenticated attacker with api.media.write permission to upload an SVG containing arbitrary JavaScript. The file is stored unmodified and served with Content-Type: image/svg+xml; when an administrator opens it in a browser, the embedded script executes in their session context, enabling cookie theft and session hijacking.

The Grav API plugin before v1.0.0-rc.16 accepts JWT tokens via the ?token= URL query parameter and responds with Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, allowing unauthenticated attackers to make fully authenticated cross-origin API requests from any malicious website. Attackers who obtain a leaked JWT token from access logs, proxy logs, browser history, or Referrer headers can create persistent backdoor super-admin accounts and exfiltrate sensitive configuration and user data.

The Grav API Plugin is a RESTful API for Grav CMS that provides full access to content, media, configuration, and user management. Prior to version 1.0.0-beta.15, there is a vulnerability related to insecure direct object reference and logic flaw, allowing authenticated users to modify their own permissions.

Vulnerability in Grav API Plugin (plugin for Grav CMS) before version 1.0.6. WebhookController.php accepts webhook URLs after only FILTER_VALIDATE_URL syntax validation, and WebhookDispatcher.php initializes cURL without CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS or CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS restrictions. An account with api.webhooks.write can submit file, dict, gopher, private-network, or link-local targets, retrieve local files and delivery response bodies, and pivot requests to internal services or cloud metadata endpoints. Fixed in version 1.0.6.

The Grav api plugin (grav-plugin-api) before version 1.0.8 fails to properly authorize API key generation and revocation. It intercepts the apiKeyGenerate/apiKeyRevoke admin tasks before the account-management ACL runs and authorizes the caller on only the admin.login permission (the baseline permission held by every panel user). This allows any user with admin.login to mint a persistent API key bound to any account, and the forged key inherits the target account's API permissions. On installs where an API-enabled account holds broader permissions, this enables account impersonation and privilege escalation up to account takeover.

The Grav API plugin (grav-plugin-api) before version 1.0.4 does not validate the origin of the admin_base_url field in the POST /api/v1/auth/forgot-password endpoint. The sanitizeHttpUrl() function only checks the URL scheme (http/https) and never verifies the host against the server's own origin, allowing an attacker to supply an arbitrary host. An unauthenticated attacker can cause the password reset email sent to a victim to contain a reset link pointing at an attacker-controlled server; when the victim follows the link, the valid reset token is disclosed to the attacker, enabling full account takeover.

Grav API plugin versions before 1.0.20 build password reset links from the untrusted Host header in the forgot-password endpoint, allowing unauthenticated attackers to redirect reset tokens to attacker-controlled domains. Attackers can send password reset requests for any account with a malicious Host header, intercept the reset token from victim emails, and complete account takeover including super-admin accounts.

The Grav API plugin before 1.0.18 does not enforce API-key scope caps in the injectSecurityTab() function of BlueprintController. A caller with a scoped API key may see and potentially edit page permission fields beyond the granted scope.

Grav API plugin before 1.0.16 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in webhook delivery that allows attackers to bypass hostname validation by DNS rebinding. Attackers controlling authoritative DNS for a configured webhook hostname can answer validation lookups with public addresses and delivery lookups with private addresses to reach internal network resources.

Grav API Plugin prior to 1.0.8 intercepts the apiKeyGenerate and apiKeyRevoke admin tasks in user/plugins/api/api.php and authorizes the caller with only admin.login. A basic panel user can select another account from the route, create a persistent ApiKeyManager credential bound to that target, and inherit the target's API permissions, including api.super or administrative write access when present. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.8.
