{"id":"GHSA-4hc4-qjfx-wjf3","summary":"Duplicate Advisory: Craft CMS: Authorization bypass: view-only Categories user can modify category structure via structures/move-element","details":"## Duplicate Advisory\n\nThis advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-xxpx-f366-4xpq. This link is maintained to preserve external references.\n\n## Original Description\nCraft CMS 5.0.0-RC1 through 5.10.5 contains an incorrect authorization vulnerability. A control-panel user holding only the viewCategories permission (without saveCategories) for a category group can permanently modify that group's category structure — reordering and re-parenting categories — via the structures/move-element action. The structureEditable flag is computed from the view permission rather than the save permission, and the StructuresController authorizes the mutating action on that read-time session grant without a save re-check. Because a category's URI is derived from its position in the structure, moving a category changes its URL and those of its descendants and can corrupt navigation menus built from the category taxonomy. The issue is fixed in 5.10.6.","modified":"2026-09-10T03:51:13.114007089Z","published":"2026-08-11T15:32:39Z","withdrawn":"2026-09-01T21:11:41Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed_at":"2026-09-01T21:11:41Z","nvd_published_at":"2026-08-11T13:19:09Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-863"],"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/craftcms/cms/security/advisories/GHSA-xxpx-f366-4xpq"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72785"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/craft-cms-before-authorization-bypass-via-structures-move-element"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"craftcms/cms","ecosystem":"Packagist","purl":"pkg:composer/craftcms/cms"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"5.0.0-RC1"}]}],"versions":["5.0.0","5.0.0-RC1","5.0.1","5.0.2","5.0.3","5.0.4","5.0.5","5.0.6","5.1.0","5.1.1","5.1.10","5.1.2","5.1.3","5.1.4","5.1.5","5.1.6","5.1.7","5.1.8","5.1.9","5.10.0","5.10.1","5.10.10","5.10.11","5.10.12","5.10.13","5.10.13.1","5.10.13.2","5.10.14","5.10.2","5.10.3","5.10.4","5.10.4.1","5.10.5","5.10.6","5.10.7","5.10.8","5.10.8.1","5.10.9","5.11.0","5.11.1","5.2.0","5.2.0-beta.1","5.2.0-beta.2","5.2.0-beta.3","5.2.0-beta.4","5.2.0-beta.5","5.2.0-beta.6","5.2.1","5.2.10","5.2.2","5.2.3","5.2.4","5.2.4.1","5.2.5","5.2.6","5.2.7","5.2.8","5.2.9","5.3.0","5.3.0-beta.1","5.3.0-beta.2","5.3.0.1","5.3.0.2","5.3.0.3","5.3.1","5.3.2","5.3.3","5.3.4","5.3.5","5.3.6","5.4.0","5.4.0.1","5.4.1","5.4.10","5.4.10.1","5.4.2","5.4.3","5.4.4","5.4.5","5.4.5.1","5.4.6","5.4.7","5.4.7.1","5.4.8","5.4.9","5.5.0","5.5.0.1","5.5.1","5.5.1.1","5.5.10","5.5.2","5.5.3","5.5.4","5.5.5","5.5.6","5.5.6.1","5.5.7","5.5.8","5.5.9","5.6.0","5.6.0.1","5.6.0.2","5.6.1","5.6.10","5.6.10.1","5.6.10.2","5.6.11","5.6.12","5.6.13","5.6.14","5.6.15","5.6.16","5.6.17","5.6.2","5.6.3","5.6.4","5.6.5","5.6.5.1","5.6.6","5.6.7","5.6.8","5.6.9","5.6.9.1","5.7.0","5.7.0-beta.1","5.7.0-beta.2","5.7.1","5.7.1.1","5.7.10","5.7.11","5.7.2","5.7.3","5.7.4","5.7.5","5.7.6","5.7.7","5.7.8","5.7.8.1","5.7.8.2","5.7.9","5.8.0","5.8.1","5.8.10","5.8.11","5.8.12","5.8.13","5.8.13.1","5.8.13.2","5.8.14","5.8.15","5.8.16","5.8.17","5.8.18","5.8.19","5.8.2","5.8.20","5.8.21","5.8.22","5.8.23","5.8.3","5.8.4","5.8.5","5.8.6","5.8.7","5.8.8","5.8.9","5.9.0","5.9.0-beta.1","5.9.0-beta.2","5.9.1","5.9.10","5.9.11","5.9.12","5.9.13","5.9.14","5.9.15","5.9.16","5.9.17","5.9.18","5.9.19","5.9.2","5.9.20","5.9.21","5.9.22","5.9.23","5.9.3","5.9.4","5.9.5","5.9.6","5.9.7","5.9.8","5.9.9","6.0.0-alpha.1","6.0.0-alpha.10","6.0.0-alpha.11","6.0.0-alpha.12","6.0.0-alpha.13","6.0.0-alpha.14","6.0.0-alpha.15","6.0.0-alpha.16","6.0.0-alpha.17","6.0.0-alpha.18","6.0.0-alpha.2","6.0.0-alpha.3","6.0.0-alpha.4","6.0.0-alpha.5","6.0.0-alpha.6","6.0.0-alpha.7","6.0.0-alpha.8","6.0.0-alpha.9"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/08/GHSA-4hc4-qjfx-wjf3/GHSA-4hc4-qjfx-wjf3.json","last_known_affected_version_range":"\u003c 5.10.6"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X"}]}
