Stored Twig injection via omitted content guards
Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 18, 2026
Server-side template injection in Grav API Plugin before 1.0.15 allows remote authenticated users to execute Twig code via translate requests. PagesController::translate() writes caller-supplied header and content into a new translated page and saves it without calling guardTwigContent() or validatePageChanges(), so process.twig can be enabled on attacker-controlled content and later rendered. Exploitation requires api.pages.write permission and a deployment where Twig content processing is enabled but editor-side enabling is blocked; the immediate result is stored, sandboxed template execution at render time, with full code execution only if a separate Twig sandbox escape is also present.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
