An authenticated, non-admin Craft CMS control panel user with limited Formie access could directly access Formie settings pages and modify global plugin configuration.\n\nIn affected versions, Formie settings-related control panel routes did not consistently enforce the required settings permission on the server side. A low-privileged Craft CMS control panel user with limited Formie access could access /admin/formie/settings, save changes to global plugin settings, and access /admin/formie/settings/import-export.\n\nThe issue has been fixed by enforcing the formie-accessSettings permission across Formie settings controllers and related settings actions.\n\n### Impact\nAn authenticated low-privileged CP user may be able to:\n- Access Formie administrative settings.\n- Modify global Formie plugin configuration.\n- Access Formie import/export settings functionality.\n\nThis may allow configuration tampering and disruption of form-related workflows. Exploitation requires an authenticated Craft CMS control panel account.\n\n## Affected packages\n\n- `verbb/formie < 3.1.28`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade to a patched release:\n\n- `verbb/formie 3.1.28`","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":35,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":34.7,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
