CVE-2026-32263: Craft CMS is a content management system (CMS)

Routine

HIGH 7.2UPGRADE

CVE-2026-32263 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.2) affecting craft cms. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

Craft CMS is a content management system (CMS). From version 5.6.0 to before version 5.9.11, in src/controllers/EntryTypesController.php, the $settings array from parse_str is passed directly to Craft::configure() without Component::cleanseConfig(). This allows injecting Yii2 behavior/event handlers via "as" or "on" prefixed keys, the same attack vector as the original advisory. Craft control panel administrator permissions and allowAdminChanges

Why this priority

High severity

A fixed release or distro patch exists.

craftcms craft cms UPGRADE

Affected: >= 5.6.0 and < 5.9.11

Fixed in: 5.9.11

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 5.6.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy craft-cms || rpm -q craft-cms || craft-cms --version

2. UPGRADE to 5.9.11 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade craft-cms

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade craft-cms

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 5.6.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison craft-cms sudo apt install craft-cms=<VERSION_BEFORE_5.6.0> sudo apt-mark hold craft-cms

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list craft-cms sudo dnf downgrade craft-cms-<VERSION_BEFORE_5.6.0> sudo dnf versionlock add craft-cms

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
