CVE-2026-65007: Missing Authorization in getgrav grav
A vulnerability in the Grav API plugin (grav-plugin-api) before version 1.0.8 allows any user with the admin.login permission to generate persistent API keys for any account without proper authorization. This flaw enables privilege escalation and potential account takeover by impersonating other accounts with broader API permissions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Grav API plugin versions prior to 1.0.8 improperly authorize API key generation and revocation. The plugin intercepts apiKeyGenerate and apiKeyRevoke admin tasks before the account-management ACL runs, authorizing callers only based on the admin.login permission, which all panel users have. This allows any user with admin.login to mint persistent API keys bound to arbitrary accounts, inheriting those accounts' API permissions. Consequently, if an API-enabled account has elevated permissions, an attacker can escalate privileges and impersonate that account, potentially leading to account takeover.
Potential Impact
Attackers with the baseline admin.login permission can generate API keys for any account, including those with elevated permissions. This enables privilege escalation and account impersonation, potentially resulting in full account takeover. The vulnerability has a high severity rating with a CVSS score of 8.7, indicating significant risk if exploited.
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 admin.login permissions to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious API key generation activity.
