Upgrade craftcms/cms to this version or later

Description

Required Permissions

The exploitation requires a few permissions to be enabled in the used GraphQL schema:

  • "Edit assets in the <VolumeName> volume"
  • "Create assets in the <VolumeName> volume"

Details

The implementation fails to restrict the URL Scheme. While the application is intended to "upload assets", there is no whitelist forcing http or https. This allows attackers to use the Gopher protocol to wrap raw TCP commands.

Impact: Combined with the DWORD bypass, an attacker can hit internal services without triggering any "127.0.0.1" string-matching filters.

Example Payload: gopher://2130706433:6379/_FLUSHALL (Targets local Redis via DWORD).

Remediation Strategy

To prevent mathematical IP obfuscation, the application must normalize the hostname before validation.

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.

Weakness

CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.
