DescriptionCVE.org

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.1, Grav ZipArchiver::extract() in system/src/Grav/Common/Filesystem/ZipArchiver.php passes archives to ZipArchive::extractTo() without enforcing the system.gpm.archive uncompressed-size, file-count, or nesting-depth limits. Code using Archiver::create('zip') to extract an attacker-controlled archive can exhaust disk space or inodes and make the site unavailable. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.1.

AnalysisAI

Disk-exhaustion denial of service in Grav CMS prior to 2.0.1 is reachable through the ZipArchiver::extract() code path, which passes attacker-controlled ZIP archives to PHP's ZipArchive::extractTo() without enforcing the platform's configured limits on uncompressed size, file count, or directory nesting depth. An authenticated attacker with plugin or theme upload access can submit a crafted decompression bomb to exhaust disk space or inodes, rendering the site unavailable. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated Grav session with sufficient privileges to upload or install archives through any code path invoking Archiver::create('zip') - specifically the ZipArchiver::extract() path triggered during plugin, theme, or package installation via the admin panel or GPM. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) accurately represents the threat profile: network-accessible, low complexity, requiring only a low-privilege authenticated account, with pure availability impact and no confidentiality or integrity exposure. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to Grav 2.0.1, released June 22, 2026, which introduces pre-extraction limit enforcement in ZipArchiver::extract() matching the caps already applied by GPM\Installer::unZip(). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
