DescriptionCVE.org

Pimcore is an Open Source Data & Experience Management Platform. Prior to 2025.4.6 and 2026.1.6, the Studio API class definition creation endpoint POST /pimcore-studio/api/class/definition/configuration-view/detail/create is guarded by the objects permission instead of the classes permission, allowing a standard editor-level user to create class definitions without admin privileges. Class definition creation generates new database tables and PHP class files on the server, and missing API-layer UID format validation allows malformed UIDs to reach model-layer validation and return internal exceptions. This issue is fixed in versions 2025.4.6 and 2026.1.6.

AnalysisAI

Broken authorization in Pimcore's Studio API lets a standard editor-level user create class definitions without administrative rights, because the POST /pimcore-studio/api/class/definition/configuration-view/detail/create endpoint checks the 'objects' permission rather than the 'classes' permission. Because class-definition creation writes new database tables and PHP class files to the server, this permission gap grants low-privileged users significant control over the application's data model and codebase, and absent API-layer UID validation malformed UIDs reach model-layer validation and surface internal exceptions. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate as editor-level user
Delivery
Send POST to class definition create endpoint
Exploit
Bypass classes-permission check via objects permission
Execution
Server generates DB tables and PHP class files
Impact
Optionally submit malformed UID to trigger internal exceptions

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must already hold a valid authenticated Pimcore account with editor-level ('objects') permission - this is the key limiting factor (PR:L), so anonymous/unauthenticated exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N, base 7.1) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity attack that requires an already-authenticated low-privileged (editor) account and no user interaction, with high integrity impact (schema/file creation), low confidentiality impact (exception leakage), and no availability impact - an internally consistent profile for a privilege/authorization gap rather than a pre-auth breach. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has (or phishes/registers) a standard editor-level Pimcore account sends an authenticated POST to /pimcore-studio/api/class/definition/configuration-view/detail/create, an action that should require the admin-only 'classes' permission. Because the endpoint only checks the 'objects' permission, the request succeeds and provisions attacker-defined database tables and server-side PHP class files; sending malformed UIDs additionally triggers internal exceptions that may leak stack/implementation details. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade the Pimcore studio-backend-bundle to 2025.4.6 (https://github.com/pimcore/studio-backend-bundle/releases/tag/v2025.4.6) if on the 2025.x line, or to 2026.1.6 (https://github.com/pimcore/studio-backend-bundle/releases/tag/v2026.1.6) if on the 2026.x line; the corrective change is tracked in PR #1886 and commit d1a4788c0f159c360d550c34256c8abbbd633ae0, and details are in advisory GHSA-f97c-ph8j-8vff. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
