Summary
Grav is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read
Details

Summary

  • A low privilege user account with page editing privilege can read any server files using "Frontmatter" form.
  • This includes Grav user account files - /grav/user/accounts/*.yaml. This file stores hashed user password, 2FA secret, and the password reset token.
  • This can allow an adversary to compromise any registered account by resetting a password for a user to get access to the password reset token from the file or by cracking the hashed password.

Details

The vulnerability can be found in /user/plugins/form/templates/forms/fields/display/display.html.twig image
