{"id":"GHSA-94vp-rmqv-5875","summary":"Twig Sandbox Escape by authenticated users with access to editing CMS templates when safemode is enabled.","details":"### Impact\nAn authenticated backend user with the `cms.manage_pages`, `cms.manage_layouts`, or `cms.manage_partials` permissions who would **normally** not be permitted to provide PHP code to be executed by the CMS due to `cms.enableSafeMode` being enabled is able to write specific Twig code to escape the Twig sandbox and execute arbitrary PHP.\n\nThis is not a problem for anyone that trusts their users with those permissions to normally write & manage PHP within the CMS by not having `cms.enableSafeMode` enabled, but would be a problem for anyone relying on `cms.enableSafeMode` to ensure that users with those permissions in production do not have access to write & execute arbitrary PHP.\n\n### Patches\nIssue has been patched in Build 469 (v1.0.469) and v1.1.0.\n\n### Workarounds\nApply https://github.com/octobercms/october/compare/106daa2930de4cebb18732732d47d4056f01dd5b...7cb148c1677373ac30ccfd3069d18098e403e1ca to your installation manually if unable to upgrade to Build 469.\n\n### References\nReported by [ka1n4t](https://github.com/ka1n4t)\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Email us at [hello@octobercms.com](mailto:hello@octobercms.com)\n\n### Threat assessment:\n\u003cimg width=\"1108\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2020-10-10 at 1 21 13 PM\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7253840/95663316-7de28b80-0afb-11eb-999d-a6526cf78709.png\"\u003e","aliases":["CVE-2020-15247"],"modified":"2026-09-10T03:48:35.507434299Z","published":"2020-11-23T19:48:27Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed_at":"2020-11-23T19:33:21Z","nvd_published_at":"2020-11-23T20:15:00Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-862"],"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/octobercms/october/security/advisories/GHSA-94vp-rmqv-5875"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-15247"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/octobercms/october/commit/4c650bb775ab849e48202a4923bac93bd74f9982"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/octobercms/october"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"october/cms","ecosystem":"Packagist","purl":"pkg:composer/october/cms"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"1.0.319"},{"fixed":"1.0.469"}]}],"versions":["v1.0.319","v1.0.320","v1.0.321","v1.0.322","v1.0.323","v1.0.324","v1.0.325","v1.0.326","v1.0.327","v1.0.328","v1.0.329","v1.0.330","v1.0.331","v1.0.332","v1.0.333","v1.0.334","v1.0.335","v1.0.336","v1.0.337","v1.0.338","v1.0.339","v1.0.340","v1.0.341","v1.0.342","v1.0.343","v1.0.344","v1.0.345","v1.0.346","v1.0.347","v1.0.348","v1.0.349","v1.0.350","v1.0.351","v1.0.352","v1.0.353","v1.0.354","v1.0.355","v1.0.356","v1.0.357","v1.0.358","v1.0.359","v1.0.360","v1.0.361","v1.0.362","v1.0.363","v1.0.364","v1.0.365","v1.0.366","v1.0.367","v1.0.368","v1.0.369","v1.0.370","v1.0.371","v1.0.372","v1.0.373","v1.0.374","v1.0.375","v1.0.376","v1.0.377","v1.0.378","v1.0.379","v1.0.380","v1.0.381","v1.0.382","v1.0.383","v1.0.384","v1.0.385","v1.0.386","v1.0.387","v1.0.388","v1.0.389","v1.0.390","v1.0.391","v1.0.392","v1.0.393","v1.0.394","v1.0.395","v1.0.396","v1.0.397","v1.0.398","v1.0.399","v1.0.400","v1.0.401","v1.0.402","v1.0.403","v1.0.404","v1.0.405","v1.0.406","v1.0.407","v1.0.408","v1.0.409","v1.0.410","v1.0.411","v1.0.412","v1.0.413","v1.0.414","v1.0.415","v1.0.416","v1.0.417","v1.0.418","v1.0.419","v1.0.420","v1.0.421","v1.0.422","v1.0.423","v1.0.424","v1.0.425","v1.0.426","v1.0.427","v1.0.428","v1.0.429","v1.0.430","v1.0.431","v1.0.432","v1.0.433","v1.0.434","v1.0.435","v1.0.436","v1.0.437","v1.0.438","v1.0.439","v1.0.440","v1.0.441","v1.0.442","v1.0.443","v1.0.444","v1.0.445","v1.0.446","v1.0.447","v1.0.448","v1.0.449","v1.0.450","v1.0.451","v1.0.452","v1.0.453","v1.0.454","v1.0.455","v1.0.456","v1.0.457","v1.0.458","v1.0.459","v1.0.460","v1.0.461","v1.0.462","v1.0.463","v1.0.464","v1.0.465","v1.0.466","v1.0.467","v1.0.468"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2020/11/GHSA-94vp-rmqv-5875/GHSA-94vp-rmqv-5875.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L"}]}
