An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-78076 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: joomshaper.com Helix Ultimate extension for Joomla. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2026-78076/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78076/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-78076","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-78076/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-78076","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-672g-vmcw-4mjj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Joomla Helix Ultimate","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can modify arbitrary menu item layouts in Helix Ultimate due to missing authorization checks on the save-megamenu-settings endpoint.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Joomla","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Joomla Extension - joomshaper.com - Broken Access Control \u0026 Missing Authorization in MegaMenu Settings in Helix Ultimate \u003c 2.2.10 - The AJAX endpoint save-megamenu-settings failed to enforce item-level and menu-level edit permissions (core.edit on com_menus.item.{id} or core.admin).
