CVE-2026-7879MEDIUMCVSS 0.0

Concrete CMS has an unauthorized file access issue

Published May 22, 2026·Updated Jun 24, 2026

Description

In Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below,  the submit_password() method in concrete/controllers/single_page/download_file.php allows unauthorized file access since downloading permission-restricted files bypasses the view_file permission check. Files without passwords can be downloaded and any user who knows a file's password can download a password protected file regardless of whether they have permission to access the file. The Concrete CMS security team thanks Youssef Eid for reporting this issue.
