Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Statamic is a flat-first, Laravel + Git powered CMS designed for building websites. In affected versions certain additional PHP files crafted to look like images may be uploaded regardless of mime type validation rules. This affects front-end forms using the "Forms" feature, and asset upload fields in the control panel. Malicious users could leverage this vulnerability to upload and execute code. This issue has been patched in versions 3.4.14 and 4.34.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for statamic/cms, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update statamic/cms to 4.34.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-2r53-9295-3m86 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Stop passing untrusted input into the interpreter or shell: call the affected binary with an argument array rather than a composed command string, reject anything outside a strict allowlist of expected values, and run the component under an account that cannot reach beyond the work it legitimately does.
