Grav vulnerable to Denial of Service via Improper Input Handling in 'Supported' Parameter

  • Publicada: 02.12.2025
  • Actualizado: 11.10.2026 10:22

Endpoint: admin/config/system
Submenu: Languages
Parameter: Supported
Application: Grav v 1.7.48

Summary

A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability was identified in the "Languages" submenu of the Grav admin configuration panel (/admin/config/system). Specifically, the Supported parameter fails to properly validate user input. If a malformed value is inserted—such as a single forward slash (/) or an XSS test string—it causes a fatal regular expression parsing error on the server.

This leads to application-wide failure due to the use of the preg_match() function with an improperly constructed regular expression, resulting in the following error:

preg_match(): Unknown modifier 'o' File: /system/src/Grav/Common/Language/Language.php line 244

Once triggered, the site becomes completely unavailable to all users.

Details

  • Vulnerable Endpoint: POST /admin/config/system

  • Submenu: Languages

  • Parameter: Supported

The application dynamically constructs a regular expression using the contents of the Supported field without escaping the input using preg_quote() or proper validation. This allows attackers to inject invalid syntax into the regex engine, crashing the application during language resolution.

Stack trace excerpt:

Whoops \ Exception \ ErrorException (E_WARNING) preg_match(): Unknown modifier 'o' /system/src/Grav/Common/Language/Language.php244

Proof of Concept (PoC)

Payloads:

/

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Log into the Grav Admin Panel.

  2. Navigate to: Configuration → System → Languages.

  3. Locate the Supported field.

  4. Insert one of the payloads above (e.g., a single slash /).

  5. Click Save.

  1. Observe: All pages in the application begin throwing a fatal error and become inaccessible.

Impact

  • Application-wide Denial of Service (DoS)

  • All login and admin views crash with the same error

  • Potentially exploitable by:

    • Admin panel users

    • CSRF if misconfigured

References

  • CWE-1333: Improper Regular Expression
