GHSA-r97q-ghch-82j9
Ghost vulnerable to information disclosure of private API fields ### Impact Due to a lack of validation when filtering on the public API endpoints, it is possible to reveal private fields via a brute force attack. Ghost(Pro) has already been patched. We can find no evidence that the issue was exploited on Ghost(Pro) prior to the patch being added. Self-hosters are impacted if running Ghost a version below v5.46.1. Immediate action should be taken to secure your site - see patches and workarounds below. ### Patches v5.46.1 contains a fix for this issue. ### Workarounds Add a block for requests to `/ghost/api/content/*` where the `filter` query parameter contains `password` or `email`. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Email us at [security@ghost.org](mailto:security@ghost.org)

Ghost vulnerable to remote code execution in locale setting change ### Impact A [vulnerability](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2022-24785) in an upstream library means an authenticated attacker can abuse locale input to execute arbitrary commands from a file that has previously been uploaded using the file upload functionality in the post editor. ### Patches Fixed in 5.2.3, all 5.x sites should update as soon as possible. Fixed in 4.48.2, all 4.x sites should update as soon as possible. ### Workarounds Patched versions of Ghost add validation to the locale input to prevent execution of arbitrary files. Updating Ghost is the quickest complete solution. As a workaround, if for any reason you cannot update your Ghost instance, you can block the `POST /ghost/api/admin/settings/` endpoint, which will also disable updating settings for your site. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Email us at [security@ghost.org](mailto:security@ghost.org) ### Credits * devx00 - https://twitter.com/devx00

CVE-2023-40028
GHSA-9c9v-w225-v5rg
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') Ghost is an open source content management system. Versions prior to 5.59.1 are subject to a vulnerability which allows authenticated users to upload files that are symlinks. This can be exploited to perform an arbitrary file read of any file on the host operating system. Site administrators can check for exploitation of this issue by looking for unknown symlinks within Ghost's `content/` folder. Version 5.59.1 contains a fix for this issue. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
5.59.1
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.

VCID-5rgb-wg1q-7kgz Member account takeover ### Impact An error in the implementation of the member email change functionality allows unauthenticated users to change the email address of arbitrary member accounts to one they control by crafting a request to the relevant API endpoint, and validating the new address via magic link sent to the new email address. Ghost(Pro) has already been patched. Self-hosters are impacted if running Ghost a version between 3.18.0 and 4.15.0 with members functionality enabled. ### Patches Fixed in 4.15.1, all 4.x sites should upgrade as soon as possible. Fixed in 3.42.6, all 3.x sites should upgrade as soon as possible. ### Workarounds The patch in 4.15.1 and 3.42.6 adds a new authenticated endpoint for updating member email addresses. Updating Ghost is the quickest complete solution. As a workaround, if for any reason you cannot update your Ghost instance, you can block the `POST /members/api/send-magic-link/` endpoint, which will also disable member login and signup for your site. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Email us at [security@ghost.org](mailto:security@ghost.org) GHSA-65p7-pjj8-ggmr
