How to Fix GHSA-f95g-vm94-46c3

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Duplicate Advisory dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

craftcms/cms fixed: Latest secure release
Upgrade craftcms/cms to Latest secure release
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for craftcms/cms

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by GHSA-f95g-vm94-46c3, inspect your project dependencies for Duplicate Advisory:

inspect dependencies for craftcms/cms

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. In Duplicate Advisory, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

## Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-4mgv-366x-qxvx. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ## Original Description Craft CMS 4.x (>= 4.0.0-RC1, < 4.17.0-beta.1) and 5.x (>= 5.0.0-RC1, < 5.9.0-beta.1) contain multiple stored cross-site scripting vulnerabilities where settings names and field option labels are rendered without sanitization (e.g., via the checkbox.twig template, which used {{ label|raw }}). An authenticated administrator (with allowAdminChanges enabled) can inject malicious payloads into section names, volume names, user group names, global set names, generated field names, checkbox/radio option labels, and custom source labels, causing arbitrary JavaScript to execute in other users' control-panel sessions. Fixed in 4.17.0-beta.1 and 5.9.0-beta.1.
