29th percentile - higher than 29% of all known CVEs

Summary

In Grav (a flat-file CMS) versions 1.7.0 through 1.7.53.2 and 2.0.0 through 2.0.21, when the debugger is enabled (system.debugger.enabled: true, which is not the default), the Clockwork profiler endpoint at /__clockwork/ is exposed without authentication. Because the shipped default is censored: false, stored records contain raw session cookies, plaintext login credentials, and the full system and plugin configuration including operator secrets. The issue is fixed in 1.7.53.4 and 2.0.22.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can hijack an admin session, read plaintext passwords, and exfiltrate configuration secrets such as SMTP credentials, API keys, and licence keys. The risk only applies when the debugger is enabled, but the impact is then critical.

Recommendation

Upgrade Grav to version 1.7.53.4 or 2.0.22. If upgrading is not possible, disable the debugger (debugger.enabled: false) or block the /__clockwork/ path at the web server or CDN.

Original NVD description (English source)

Grav is a flat-file CMS. In Grav 1.7.0 through 1.7.53.2 and 2.0.0 through 2.0.21, when the debugger is enabled (system.debugger.enabled: true, which is not the default), the Clockwork profiler endpoint is exposed without authentication: InitializeProcessor::handleDebuggerRequest() intercepts any path containing /__clockwork/ during bootstrap and passes it to Debugger::debuggerRequest(), which performs no user lookup, IP restriction, or Clockwork authenticator check, and also supports anonymous pagination over the entire stored history. With the shipped censored: false default, each stored record contains raw request cookies (including Grav's session cookie, whose value is the PHP session id, allowing an attacker to resume another user's session, including an authenticated admin's), the full parsed request body (Grav's login form posts data[username]/data[password], so passwords are stored in plaintext because Clockwork's password filter only inspects top-level keys), and the site's entire system and plugin configuration, including operator-saved secrets such as SMTP credentials, third-party API keys, and licence keys. Authorization and X-API-Token headers are stored even when censored: true. On Grav 2.0, setting provider: debugbar does not avoid the issue because Grav forces the Clockwork provider for requests preferring a JSON response. The issue is fixed in 1.7.53.4 and 2.0.22, which restrict /__clockwork/ to server-local requests or requests presenting the new system.debugger.token secret and strip cookies and credential headers from stored records. Workarounds include setting debugger.enabled: false or blocking /__clockwork/ at the web server or CDN.
