cms: Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-41175 is a high-severity use of externally-controlled input to select classes or code vulnerability in cms from Statamic, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. Affected cms versions: < 5.73.20; >= 6.0.0-alpha.1, < 6.13.0. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.3% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update Statamic to 5.73.20 or 6.13.0, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
  2. Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.

Official description

Statamic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). Prior to versions 5.73.20 and 6.13.0, manipulating query parameters on Control Panel and REST API endpoints, or arguments in GraphQL queries, could result in the loss of content, assets, and user accounts. The Control Panel requires authentication with minimal permissions in order to exploit. e.g. "view entries" permission to delete entries, or "view users" permission to delete users, etc. The REST and GraphQL API exploits do not require any permissions, however neither are enabled by default. In order to be exploited, they would need to be explicitly enabled with no authentication configured, and the specific resources enabled too. Sites that enable the REST or GraphQL API without authentication should treat patching as critical priority. This has been fixed in 5.73.20 and 6.13.0.

The underlying weakness: Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code

The product uses external input with reflection to select which classes or code to use, but it does not sufficiently prevent the input from selecting improper classes or code.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Refactor your code to avoid using reflection.
  • Do not use user-controlled inputs to select and load classes or code.
  • Apply strict input validation by using allowlists or indirect selection to ensure that the user is only selecting allowable classes or code.
