How to Fix CVE-2019-10874

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

bolt/bolt fixed: 3.6.7 
Upgrade bolt/bolt to 3.6.7
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 bolt/bolt

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2019-10874, inspect your project dependencies for Bolt/bolt:

inspect dependencies for bolt/bolt

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Bolt/bolt in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 3.6.7), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), where the web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor. In Bolt/bolt, 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

Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in the `bolt/upload` File Upload feature in Bolt CMS 3.6.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a JavaScript file to include executable extensions in the `file/edit/config/config.yml` configuration file.
