getkirby/cms
source listedECOSYSTEM: introduced 0; fixed 4.9.1
### TL;DR This vulnerability affects all Kirby sites that might have potential attackers in the group of authenticated Panel users. **This vulnerability is of high severity for affected sites and has a high real-world impact.** ---- ### Introduction Arbitrary method call is a type of arbitrary code execution. It is a vulnerability that allows attackers to run any commands or code of the attacker's choice on a target machine or in a target process. Depending on the set of accessible methods, this can lead to disclosure of sensitive information or to unintended and malicious write actions. ### Affected components Kirby's data model is made up of model objects that are contained in collection objects. These collections can be queried with methods such as `$collection->filter()`, `$collection->sort()`, `$collection->group()`, `$collection->pluck()` and `$collection->findBy()`. Each of these methods allows to query the models contained in the collection by any accessible model attribute (field or method). Kirby also provides endpoints in its REST API that allow to search through users or through children and files of the site or of a particular page. These endpoints allow the `

A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
