Description

CVE-2026-56710 is a critical vulnerability in the Grav Login plugin before version 1.0.16. It allows an attacker with api.users.write permission to bypass privilege checks and clear login lockout counters on admin.super accounts. This removal of brute-force protection affects the highest-privilege accounts without requiring equivalent permissions.

Technical Analysis

The Grav Login plugin versions prior to 1.0.16 do not properly validate the privilege level of target accounts in the onApiUserListRowAction unlock handler. This flaw enables an attacker who has api.users.write permission to reset the login lockout counters on admin.super accounts. Consequently, brute-force protections on these high-privilege accounts can be circumvented, potentially allowing repeated login attempts without lockout.

Potential Impact

An attacker with api.users.write permission can disable brute-force protection on the highest-privilege admin.super accounts by clearing their login lockout counters. This increases the risk of successful brute-force attacks against these critical accounts, potentially leading to unauthorized administrative access.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or remediation level is currently confirmed. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict api.users.write permissions to trusted users only to reduce the risk of exploitation.
