CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-863  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade silverstripe/cms to version 3.1.11 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization due to insufficient permission validation in the SiteTree::canCreate method. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to create new SiteTree objects in the database without proper authorization. This issue arises when CMS access is granted through alternative methods, or when other modules that rely on model-level permissions, like the RestfulServer module, are in use.

Note

This vulnerability is restricted to the creation of draft or live pages, and does not allow users to edit, publish, or unpublish existing pages.
