CVE-2026-77939: Flextype CMS 1.0.0-dev RCE via POST /api/v1/query Endpoint

Published Aug 28, 2026
·
Updated

Flextype CMS through v1.0.0-dev contains an expression language injection vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with a valid API token to read arbitrary files by passing unsanitized user-supplied input to the Symfony ExpressionLanguage engine via the POST /api/v1/query endpoint. Attackers can leverage exposed application objects including filesystem() and serializers() within the evaluation scope to read arbitrary server files and achieve conditional remote code execution if a PHP file can be placed on disk through a secondary vector.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue?

An attacker needs a valid Flextype API token and network access to the POST /api/v1/query endpoint. Unauthenticated attackers are not described as able to exploit it.

2

What is the practical impact if exploitation succeeds?

An authenticated attacker can read arbitrary files from the server through expression-language injection. Remote code execution is conditional: it requires a separate way to place a PHP file on disk.

3

Is remote code execution possible through this vulnerability alone?

The available information describes direct arbitrary file read through the query endpoint. Code execution additionally depends on a secondary file-placement vector that allows the attacker to write a PHP file to disk.
