{"id":"CVE-2026-92589","state":"PUBLISHED","title":"Craft CMS 5.0.0 before 5.10.13 Broken Access Control via nested-elements/reorder","description":"Craft CMS 5.0.0 through 5.10.12 (fixed in 5.10.13) contains a broken access control flaw in the nested-elements reorder endpoint. When an authenticated control panel user with viewEntries and viewPeerEntries (but without savePeerEntries) opens another author's entry in read-only mode, Craft unconditionally grants that session a `manageNestedElements::<ownerId>::field:<handle>` authorization flag for the entry's Matrix/Address fields. Unlike the corresponding delete endpoint, actions/nested-elements/reorder trusts this session flag alone and never rechecks the caller's save permission for the owner element. As a result, a view-only user can POST to actions/nested-elements/reorder using the ownerElementType, ownerId, ownerSiteId, attribute, elementIds, and offset parameters present in the read-only page source and rewrite the sort order of Matrix blocks or Addresses belonging to content they are explicitly denied save access to.","publishedAt":"2026-09-16T21:46:55.216Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-18T20:12:02.490Z","severity":{"score":5.3,"label":"Medium","version":"4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","source":"VulnCheck"},"assigner":"VulnCheck","products":["craftcms cms"],"affected":[{"vendor":"craftcms","product":"cms","defaultStatus":"unaffected","versions":[{"version":"5.0.0","status":"affected","lessThan":"5.10.13","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.13","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"}]}],"references":["https://github.com/craftcms/cms/security/advisories/GHSA-6fp2-8j9w-7mj8","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/craft-cms-5.0.0-before-5.10.13-broken-access-control-via-nested-elements-reorder"],"weaknesses":["CWE-862"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:13:34.582Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2026/92xxx/CVE-2026-92589.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.2","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2026-92589","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2026-09-16T21:46:55.216Z","dateUpdated":"2026-09-18T20:12:02.490Z","assignerShortName":"VulnCheck","assignerOrgId":"83251b91-4cc7-4094-a5c7-464a1b83ea10","dateReserved":"2026-09-16T13:47:49.170Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"title":"Craft CMS 5.0.0 before 5.10.13 Broken Access Control via nested-elements/reorder","descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"Craft CMS 5.0.0 through 5.10.12 (fixed in 5.10.13) contains a broken access control flaw in the nested-elements reorder endpoint.
