Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized disclosure of information about the Amazon S3 buckets that the Craft CMS plugin has access to.

An attacker or unauthenticated user with a valid CSRF token could view a list of these buckets, potentially exposing sensitive infrastructure details.

While the vulnerability does not allow modification or deletion of data, the exposure of bucket names or existence could aid further targeted attacks or reconnaissance.

Executive Summary

CVE-2026-32265 is an information disclosure vulnerability in the Amazon S3 plugin for Craft CMS, affecting versions 2.0.2 through 2.2.4.

The vulnerability occurs because the BucketsController->actionLoadBucketData() endpoint allows unauthenticated users who have a valid CSRF token to view a list of Amazon S3 buckets that the plugin has access to.

This means that unauthorized users can see bucket information that should be restricted.

The issue was fixed by adding an authorization check requiring administrative privileges to access this endpoint, starting from version 2.2.5.

Mitigation Strategies

The immediate step to mitigate this vulnerability is to update the Amazon S3 plugin for Craft CMS to version 2.2.5 or later.

This update includes an authorization check that restricts access to the bucket data endpoint to administrative users only.

Until the update can be applied, consider restricting access to the vulnerable endpoint or implementing additional access controls to prevent unauthenticated users from accessing it.
