SCA: security update for backpack/crud (GHSA-mmg4-322v-6jvc)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 446172

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. From 6.0.0 until 6.8.14 and 7.0.38,
src/resources/views/crud/columns/color.blade.php inverts the escaped and raw rendering branches controlled
by $column['escaped'], which defaults to true, causing $column['text'] to be rendered unescaped by
default. An attacker who can store an unsanitized value in a color column can execute script in the
browser of a user who views the CRUD list, including an administrator, with access to the victim's
session-backed application capabilities. Exploitation requires write access to the stored color value and
a victim viewing the list. This issue is fixed in versions 6.8.14 and 7.0.38. (CVE-2026-54181)

Solution

Update the backpack/crud library and its related packages to version 6.8.14 or later.
