No affected components available
Impact
Twig processing of static pages can be enabled in the front matter by any administrative user allowed to create or edit pages. As the Twig processor runs unsandboxed, this behavior can be used to gain arbitrary code execution and elevate privileges on the instance.
Patches
The issue was addressed by preventing dangerous functions from being called in Twig templates. A configuration option has been added to manually allow arbitrary PHP functions (system.twig.safe_functions) and filters (system.twig.safe_filters).
Futures major versions of Grav may disable this functionality by default.
Workarounds
Blocking access to the /admin path from untrusted sources will reduce the probability of exploitation.
