SCA: security update for craftcms/cms (GHSA-g7j6-fmwx-7vp8)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438630

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Craft is a content management system (CMS). The ElementSearchController::actionSearch() endpoint is
 missing the unset() protection that was added to ElementIndexesController in CVE-2026-25495. The exact
 same SQL injection vulnerability (including criteria[orderBy], the original advisory vector) works on this
 controller because the fix was never applied to it. Any authenticated control panel user (no admin
 required) can inject arbitrary SQL via criteria[where], criteria[orderBy], or other query properties, and
 extract the full database contents via boolean-based blind injection. Users should update to the patched
 5.9.9 release to mitigate the issue. (CVE-2026-31858)

Solution

Update the craftcms/cms library and its related packages to version 5.9.9 or later.
