CVE-2026-31857

A Remote Code Execution vulnerability exists in the Craft CMS 5 conditions system.

The BaseElementSelectConditionRule::getElementIds() method passes user-controlled string input

through renderObjectTemplate() -- an unsandboxed Twig rendering function with escaping disabled.

Any authenticated Control Panel user (including non-admin roles such as Author or Editor) can achieve full

RCE by sending a crafted condition rule via standard element listing endpoints.

This vulnerability requires no admin privileges, no special permissions beyond basic control panel access, and

bypasses all production hardening settings (allowAdminChanges: false, devMode: false,

enableTwigSandbox: true).

Users should update to the patched 5.99 release to mitigate the issue.
