An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-25517 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 6.3.6, 7.0.4, 7.1.3, 7.2.2, 7.3\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 6.3.6\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 6.3.6\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 6.4rc1; fixed in 7.0.4\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 6.4rc1; fixed in 7.0.4\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.1rc1; fixed in 7.1.3\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.1rc1; fixed in 7.1.3\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.2rc1; fixed in 7.2.2\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.2rc1; fixed in 7.2.2\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.3rc1; fixed in 7.3\n- wagtail (PyPI): affected from 7.3rc1; fixed in 7.3\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-25517/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-25517/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-25517","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-25517/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-25517","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348","PYSEC-2026-2030"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Wagtail CMS","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated admin user can bypass permission checks to view sensitive database contents via crafted preview submissions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"wagtail","vendor":"torchbox"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Wagtail is an open source content management system built on Django. Prior to versions 6.3.6, 7.0.4, 7.1.3, 7.2.2, and 7.3, due to a missing permission check on the preview endpoints, a user with access to the Wagtail admin and knowledge of a model's fields can craft a form submission to obtain a preview rendering of any page, snippet or site setting object for which previews are enabled, consisting of any data of the user's choosing. The existing data of the object itself is not exposed, but depending on the nature of the template being rendered, this may expose other database contents that would otherwise only be accessible to users with edit access over the model. The vulnerability is not exploitable by an ordinary site visitor without access to the Wagtail admin. This issue has been patched in versions 6.3.6, 7.0.4, 7.1.3, 7.2.2, and 7.3.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Wagtail has improper permission handling on admin preview endpoints","id":"CVE-2026-25517","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2026"},"n_packages":11,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"cert-manager-controller DoS via Specially Crafted DNS Response","id":"CVE-2026-25518"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["6.3.6","7.0.4","7.1.3","7.2.2","7.3"],"introduced":["0","6.4rc1","7.1rc1","7.2rc1","7.3rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"PYSEC-2026-2030"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["6.3.6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["6.3.6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.0.4"],"introduced":["6.4rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.0.4"],"introduced":["6.4rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.1.3"],"introduced":["7.1rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.1.3"],"introduced":["7.1rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.2.2"],"introduced":["7.2rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.2.2"],"introduced":["7.2rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.3"],"introduced":["7.3rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["7.3"],"introduced":["7.3rc1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"wagtail","purl":"pkg:pypi/wagtail","source":"GHSA-4qvv-g3vr-m348"}],"prev":{"headline":"NiceGUI's XSS vulnerability in ui.markdown() allows arbitrary JavaScript execution through unsanitized HTML content","id":"CVE-2026-25516"},"products":["wagtail"],"published":"2026-02-04","related":[{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Wagtail: Reflected XSS in dynamic image URL generator view","id":"CVE-2026-54263","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-01"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Wagtail: Improper permission handling in image preview","id":"CVE-2026-54261","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-01"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Wagtail: Improper permission handling when comparing revisions","id":"CVE-2026-44197","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-11"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Wagtail: Improper permission handling when deleting form submissions","id":"CVE-2026-44199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-11"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Wagtail: Improper permission handling when copying pages","id":"CVE-2026-44200","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-11"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Wagtail regular expression denial-of-service via search query parsing","id":"CVE-2024-39317","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-11"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Wagtail vulnerable to stored Cross-site Scripting attack via ModelAdmin views","id":"CVE-2023-28836","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-03"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-05","vendors":["wagtail"]},"summary":"An authenticated admin user can bypass permission checks to view sensitive database contents via crafted preview submissions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-25517/"}
