CVE-2026-7882
Received Received - Intake
Concrete CMS Unauthorized File Deletion via Inverted CSRF Check

Publication date: 2026-05-21

Last updated on: 2026-05-21

Assigner: ConcreteCMS

Description
Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to unauthorized file deletion due to an Inverted CSRF token check in the DeleteFile controller. The code throws an error when the token IS valid and proceeds with file deletion when the token is invalid or missing. This effectively disables CSRF protection for the file deletion endpoint, allowing cross-site request forgery attacks against users who have permission to edit conversation messages. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 2.3 with a vector of CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Tristan Mandani for reporting.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

Concrete CMS version 9.5.0 and below has a vulnerability in its DeleteFile controller caused by an inverted CSRF token check. Instead of preventing unauthorized actions when the CSRF token is invalid or missing, the code erroneously throws an error when the token is valid and proceeds with file deletion when the token is invalid or missing. This flaw disables CSRF protection for the file deletion endpoint.

As a result, attackers can perform cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks to delete files without proper authorization, targeting users who have permission to edit conversation messages.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability allows attackers to delete files without proper authorization by exploiting the disabled CSRF protection on the file deletion endpoint.

If you are a user with permission to edit conversation messages, an attacker could trick you into unknowingly deleting files, potentially leading to data loss or disruption of service.
