SCA: security update for concrete5/concrete5 (GHSA-645j-cm4x-3xvw)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443870

Description

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

- Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below fails to sanitize path traversal sequences in the
ptComposerFormLayoutSetControlCustomTemplate field when saving page type composer form layouts. An
authenticated rogue administrator with composer form editing rights can exploit this to include arbitrary
readable files on the server. Combined with the file uploader's extension-only validation (which permits
PHP code in files saved with image extensions like .png), this can result in authenticated remote code
execution. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 9.4 with vector
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for
reporting. (CVE-2026-8134)

Solution

Update the concrete5/concrete5 library and its related packages to version 9.5.1 or later.
