- Also known as: GHSA-WMW3-3FV3-H54W
- Severity: CVSS 5.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial

- Fixed in: 9.5.1
- Published: 2026-05-21 · Updated: 2026-05-22

## Affected

- Concrete CMS: from 5, through 9.5.0
- concrete5/concrete5 (Packagist): fixed in 9.5.1

## Description

Concrete CMS below 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to password change without reauthorization and session-hardening bypass. The user-profile edit controller passes the entire raw POST array to UserInfo::update() without field whitelisting resulting in password change without requiring the current password and also resulting in registered users able to disable the per-user-IP-pinning in the session validator which is meant to detect hijacking. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 5.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks 0x4c616e for reporting.
