Summary
Statamic Vulnerable to Superadmin Account Takeover via Stored Cross-Site Scripting and Lack of Proper X-CSRF-TOKEN Server-Side Validation
Details

Impact

Stored XSS vulnerabilities in Collections and Taxonomies allow authenticated users with content creation permissions to inject malicious JavaScript that executes when viewed by higher-privileged users.

This affects:

  • Control panel users with permission to create or edit Collections and Taxonomies
  • Versions up to and including 5.22.0

The vulnerability can be exploited to:

  • Change a super admin's password (versions ≤ 5.21.0)
  • Change a super admin's email address to initiate password reset (version 5.22.0)
  • Gain unauthorized access to superadmin accounts

The attack requires:

  • An authenticated user with control panel and content creation permissions
  • A super admin to view the compromised content

Patches

This has been fixed in 5.22.1.
