SCA: security update for craftcms/cms (GHSA-3x4w-mxpf-fhqq)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438959

Description

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

 - Craft CMS is a content management system (CMS). In versions 5.9.0-beta.1 through 5.9.10, the
 revision/draft context menu in the element editor renders the creator’s fullName as raw HTML due to the
 use of Template::raw() combined with Craft::t() string interpolation. A low-privileged control panel user
 (e.g., Author) can set their fullName to an XSS payload via the profile editor, then create an entry with
 two saves. If an administrator is logged in and executes a specifically crafted payload while an elevated
 session is active, the attacker’s account can be elevated to administrator. This issue has been fixed in
 version 5.9.11. (CVE-2026-33051)

Solution

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