Descriptions

The Grav admin plugin prior to version 1.10.11 does not correctly verify caller's privileges. As a consequence, users with the permission `admin.login` can install third-party plugins and their dependencies. By installing the right plugin, an attacker can obtain an arbitrary code execution primitive and elevate their privileges on the instance. The vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.10.11. As a mitigation blocking access to the `/admin` path from untrusted sources will reduce the probability of exploitation.

El plugin de administración de Grav anterior a versión 1.10.11, no verifica correctamente los privilegios de la persona que llama. Como consecuencia, los usuarios con el permiso "admin.login" pueden instalar plugins de terceros y sus dependencias. Al instalar el plugin correcto, un atacante puede obtener una primitiva ejecución de código arbitraria y elevar sus privilegios en la instancia. La vulnerabilidad ha sido solucionada en la versión 1.10.11. Como mitigación, el bloqueo del acceso a la ruta "/admin" desde fuentes no confiables reducirá la probabilidad de explotación
