SCA: security update for backpack/crud (GHSA-xpv2-hrfc-hw62)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 446149

Description

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

 - backpack/crud provides Create, Read, Update & Delete (CRUD) functions for Backpack, a collection of
 Laravel packages that help users build custom administration panels. Prior to 6.8.11 and 7.0.34,
 MyAccountController::postAccountInfoForm in src/app/Http/Controllers/MyAccountController.php at POST
 /admin/edit-account-info passes request data from $request->except(['_token']) to the user model instead
 of restricting updates to fields accepted by AccountInfoRequest::validationData(). An attacker with an
 authenticated Backpack session can therefore mass-assign password, the authentication column, or other
 deployment-specific fillable attributes. With the default Laravel 11 user model, a submitted plaintext
 password is automatically hashed and persisted, converting temporary session access into persistent
 account takeover without the old_password check enforced by the separate password-change route. Changing
 the authentication email can also enable later password-reset takeover, while additional fillable security
 attributes can permit deployment-specific privilege escalation or security-control changes. This issue is
 fixed in versions 6.8.11 and 7.0.34. (CVE-2026-54175)

Solution

Update the backpack/crud library and its related packages to version 6.8.11 or later.
