CVE-2026-42608
Published:May 11, 2026
Updated:May 16, 2026
Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.0-beta.2, there is a Path Traversal vulnerability within the FormFlash core component. By manipulating the session_id (passed as __form-flash-id in POST requests), an unauthenticated attacker can traverse the filesystem to create arbitrary directories and write an index.yaml file containing attacker-controlled data. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized modification of application behavior, potential data integrity issues, and service disruption in production environments. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.0.0-beta.2.
