CVE-2026-62230
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedGrav before 2.0.4 ships a default .htaccess (and reference webserver-configs/htaccess.txt) whose rules blocking access to sensitive file types (.yaml, .php, .json, etc.) lack the [NC] flag, making extension matching case-sensitive. On case-insensitive filesystems (Windows/NTFS, macOS/HFS+, or Docker volume mounts), an unauthenticated attacker can request these files with uppercase or mixed-case extensions (e.g., .YAML, .PHP) to bypass the restrictions and read sensitive configuration files that may contain API keys and credentials.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedGrav 2.0.4 or later
- 1. Back up your Grav installation including all configuration files and content
- 2. Download Grav 2.0.4 or later from the official Grav downloads page (getgrav.org)
- 3. Extract the new version and replace the existing files, preserving your user/data/config folders
- 4. Ensure the .htaccess file in the root directory includes the [NC] flag for extension blocking rules (e.g., 'RewriteRule \.yaml$ - [NC,F]'), or verify it was updated in the new version
- 5. Clear any cache directories (including cache/twig and cache/doctrine if present)
- 6. Test that the application functions correctly after upgrade
- 7. Verify that uppercase/mixed-case extensions (e.g., .YAML, .PHP) are now properly blocked by requesting a test file
Generated from the published advisory — verify against the referenced sources before acting.
There is no version to upgrade to and no patch to apply. Every affected install stays exposed until the vendor ships a fix — or somebody else builds one.
Free. We build fixes in the order the community asks for them — and we’ll tell you the moment this one lands.
We develop and verify an original fix where the vendor hasn’t, from $1,950. Deployed to your staging first — never straight to production.
