Overview

CVE-2026-61842 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 19, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

Grav is a file-based Web platform. Prior to 2.0.2, the Grav Twig content sandbox permits grav.offsetGet('config') to return the raw configuration object and permits json_encode, print_r, yaml_encode, and string filters to serialize that object without passing through GravSecurityPolicy::checkMethodAllowed. A user with page-author permissions can render sandboxed content that exposes plugins.* configuration secrets, including SMTP credentials, API keys, and plugin database credentials. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.2.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
