Summary

contao/core versions 2.x prior to 2.11.17 and 3.x prior to 3.2.9 are vulnerable to arbitrary code execution on the server due to insufficient input validation. In fact, attackers can remove or change pathconfig.php by entering a URL, meaning that the entire Contao installation will no longer be accessible or malicious code can be executed.

Patch / fix

  • packagist contao/core 2.11.17, 3.2.9

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
