The fix for https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-7jx7-3846-m7w7 (commit https://github.com/craftcms/cms/commit/395c64f0b80b507be1c862a2ec942eaacb353748) only patched `src/services/Fields.php`, but the same vulnerable pattern exists in `ElementIndexesController` and `FieldsController`. You need Craft control panel administrator permissions, and allowAdminChanges must be enabled for this to work. An attacker can use the same gadget chain from the original advisory to achieve RCE. Users should update to Craft 4.17.5 and 5.9.11 to mitigate the issue.
Analysis
Remote code execution in Craft CMS allows authenticated administrators with control panel access to execute arbitrary code by exploiting an incomplete patch that left the same vulnerable gadget chain pattern in multiple controllers. The vulnerability requires administrative privileges and the allowAdminChanges setting to be enabled, limiting exposure to trusted users with elevated access. …
