CVE-2026-116897 Details
Description
REDAXO core before 5.21.4 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the structure/version and structure/history frontend preview modes, which do not check category or clang permissions for the previewed article. Any backend user, or one holding history[article_rollback], can set rex_version or rex_history_date with arbitrary article_id values to read unpublished working versions and historic or deleted content.
A missing authorization vulnerability has been identified in REDAXO core versions prior to 5.21.4. This vulnerability exists in the structure/version and structure/history frontend preview modes, which fail to verify category or language permissions for the articles being previewed. As a result, any backend user, or those with the history[article_rollback] permission, can manipulate request parameters to access unpublished working versions, as well as historic or deleted content.
Users are advised to update REDAXO to version 5.21.4 or later.
