SCA: security update for craftcms/cms (GHSA-qx2q-q59v-wf3j)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438832

Description

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

- Craft CMS is a content management system (CMS). From version 5.6.0 to before version 5.9.11, in
src/controllers/EntryTypesController.php, the $settings array from parse_str is passed directly to
Craft::configure() without Component::cleanseConfig(). This allows injecting Yii2 behavior/event handlers
via "as" or "on" prefixed keys, the same attack vector as the original advisory. Craft control panel
administrator permissions and allowAdminChanges must be enabled for this to work. This issue has been
patched in version 5.9.11. (CVE-2026-32263)

Solution

Update the craftcms/cms library and its related packages to version 5.9.11 or later.
