Summary
Grav plugin-api before 1.0.15 contains a script injection vulnerability where the SVG sanitizer only checks for the exact extension 'svg', allowing .svgz and .xhtml files to bypass sanitization and be stored unsanitized. Attackers with api.media.write permission can upload files containing executable script payloads that execute in the site origin when accessed by administrators or visitors.
Risk Assessment
The risk is the possibility of executing malicious scripts in the site's origin, which can lead to data theft, session hijacking, or other attacks. The vulnerability can be exploited by users with file upload permissions.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade Grav plugin-api to version 1.0.15 or later, which includes the fix. Also extend the SVG sanitizer to handle other extensions such as .svgz and .xhtml.
Other vulnerabilities in Grav plugin-api
See all- CVE-2026-86195High
grav-plugin-api versions before 1.0.20 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the InvitationsController where the stripSuperFlags() method only removes nested super flags but fails to strip dot-keyed equivalents like api.super. A non-super user manager with api.access and api.users.write permissions can create an invitation with a dot-keyed super flag in the access payload that bypasses the guard and persists to the new account. Attackers can accept the invitation through the public endpoint without real invitee interaction to create a super-admin account and immediately receive a valid JWT for full site control.
- CVE-2026-86193High
grav-plugin-api before 1.0.20 fails to validate group-inherited super permissions in user-management guards, allowing non-super user managers to modify super-admin accounts. Attackers with api.access and api.users.write can patch password fields on group-super accounts to gain full administrative control.
- CVE-2026-75830High
grav-plugin-api (getgrav/grav-plugin-api) versions >= 1.0.0-beta.10 and <= 1.0.14 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the PagesController::batchCopy() method. An incomplete fix for GHSA-qjq4-jp55-4mx2 left the user-controlled 'suffix' parameter (via POST /api/v1/pages/batch) unvalidated. An authenticated user with the api.pages.write permission (editor-level, not super-admin) can supply path traversal sequences (e.g. /../../../) in the suffix parameter to escape the intended user/pages/ directory and write attacker-controlled page content and page media to arbitrary filesystem locations writable by the web server process. The vulnerability is fixed in 1.0.15.
- CVE-2026-75829High
The grav-plugin-api plugin before version 1.0.15 fails to validate Twig content in the translate() endpoint, allowing attackers with api.pages.write permission to persist pages with process.twig enabled. Attackers can submit crafted header and content parameters to execute server-side template injection payloads that are evaluated at render time.
- CVE-2026-72828High
Grav Plugin API (getgrav/grav-plugin-api) before 1.0.13 fails to enforce API-key scope caps in InvitationsController. The strip-super and accept-groups decisions are gated on a bare isSuperAdmin() check rather than a scope-aware permission check, so a least-privilege API key (scoped to api.users.write) minted on a super account can create an invitation record containing super-admin access flags. When the invitation is accepted, those flags are written verbatim to the new account, resulting in privilege escalation to a fully controlled super account.
