Description
Flextype CMS versions up to v1.0.0-dev have an expression language injection vulnerability. Authenticated attackers with a valid API token can exploit this flaw via the POST /api/v1/query endpoint to read arbitrary files on the server. The vulnerability arises from unsanitized user input passed to the Symfony ExpressionLanguage engine, allowing access to application objects like filesystem() and serializers(). This can lead to conditional remote code execution if an attacker can place a PHP file on the server through another method.

Technical Analysis
Flextype CMS through v1.0.0-dev contains an expression language injection vulnerability (CWE-94) that permits authenticated users with valid API tokens to inject expressions into the Symfony ExpressionLanguage engine via the POST /api/v1/query endpoint. This injection allows reading arbitrary server files by leveraging exposed application objects such as filesystem() and serializers(). Additionally, if an attacker can place a PHP file on the server through a secondary vector, they may achieve conditional remote code execution. The CVSS 3.1 score is 6.5 (High) with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requiring privileges but no user interaction.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to read arbitrary files on the server, potentially exposing sensitive data. It also opens the possibility of conditional remote code execution if an attacker can upload a PHP file via another vulnerability or vector. This elevates the risk to confidentiality and potentially integrity of the affected system. No known exploits in the wild have been reported yet.
Mitigation Recommendations
No patch or official fix information is currently available. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is released, restrict API token usage to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to the POST /api/v1/query endpoint. Avoid exposing this endpoint to untrusted networks.
