DescriptionCVE.org

Grav API Plugin is a RESTful API for Grav CMS that provides full headless access to your site's content. Prior to 1.0.0-rc.16, the Grav API plugin JwtAuthenticator::extractBearerToken() accepts a JWT from the token URL query parameter on every /api/v1 route, including state-changing endpoints. Request URLs consequently expose valid access tokens through Apache, proxy, and CDN logs, browser history, and Referer headers, allowing a party with access to those records to reuse the token with the owner's API privileges. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.0-rc.16.

AnalysisAI

JWT bearer token leakage in the Grav API Plugin for Grav CMS (prior to 1.0.0-rc.16) exposes valid access tokens to any party with access to server logs, proxy logs, CDN logs, browser history, or Referer headers. The JwtAuthenticator::extractBearerToken() method accepted tokens supplied via the ?token= URL query parameter on every /api/v1 route - including state-changing endpoints - rather than restricting token-in-URL to the file-download routes where it is technically necessary. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two conditions to align: (1) the Grav API Plugin version prior to 1.0.0-rc.16 must be installed and active, and (2) the attacker must have read access to at least one of the following secondary sources that capture full request URLs - Apache/web server access logs, reverse proxy or load-balancer logs, CDN access logs, browser history on a shared machine, or Referer headers transmitted to third-party resources embedded in pages returned by the API. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.5 High score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) captures the network-reachable nature and high confidentiality impact, but the PR:N metric deserves scrutiny: exploitation requires a legitimate token that was already issued to an authenticated user, so the attacker's effort is not zero - they must first obtain access to a log source. … 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 the Grav API Plugin to version 1.0.0-rc.16, which is the vendor-released patch addressing this issue. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Grav CMS instances running the API Plugin version prior to 1.0.0-rc.16 and immediately disable bearer token authentication via URL ?token= query parameters-require tokens exclusively in HTTP Authorization headers for all /api/v1 endpoints. …
