Concrete CMS has a session-hardening bypass and allows password change without reauthorization
CVE-2026-8327GHSA-wmw3-3fv3-h54w
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (concrete5/concrete5 9.5.1), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to password change without reauthorization and session-hardening bypass. The user-profile edit controller passes the entire raw POST array to UserInfo::update() without field whitelisting resulting in password change without requiring the current password and also resulting in registered users able to disable the per-user-IP-pinning in the session validator which is meant to detect hijacking.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-8327 Advisory: Concrete CMS has a session-hardening bypass and allows password change without reauthorization IDs: CVE-2026-8327, GHSA-wmw3-3fv3-h54w Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-8327 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:49 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Medium (CVSS 5.3) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: concrete5/concrete5 9.5.1. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - Packagist concrete5/concrete5: affected < 9.5.1; fixed in 9.5.1 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - Packagist concrete5/concrete5: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on concrete5/concrete5. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-wmw3-3fv3-h54w (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-wmw3-3fv3-h54w lists affected ranges: Packagist concrete5/concrete5 >=0 <9.5.1) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
