DescriptionCVE.org

The Grav Login plugin (grav-plugin-login) versions <= 3.8.11 contain a privilege escalation flaw in the authenticated profile self-update handler (processUserProfile(), the update_user task). Unlike the registration handler, this handler does not strip privilege fields ('groups','access') from user-submitted form data before persisting them. When an administrator has added 'groups' and/or 'access' to plugins.login.user_registration.fields and the default 'regular'/DataUser account backend is in use, a low-privilege authenticated user can POST crafted profile form data (e.g. access[admin][super]=true) to escalate to super-admin, enabling admin panel access, scheduler abuse (RCE), and Twig evaluation. Fixed in 3.8.12.

Privilege escalation in the Grav CMS Login plugin (grav-plugin-login) <= 3.8.11 lets a low-privilege authenticated user promote their own account to super-admin by injecting privilege fields into a profile self-update request. The flaw lives in processUserProfile() (the update_user task), which — unlike the registration handler — fails to strip 'groups' and 'access' from user-submitted form data before persisting it. …
