CVE-2026-61453: Grav: XSS Blueprint Validation Bypass via Twig String Concatenation

September 16, 2026

The XSS blueprint validator (Security::detectXss()) runs on the raw page content before Twig processing. An attacker can use Twig’s string concatenation operator (~) to dynamically construct an event handler name at render time. The validator sees {{ "on" ~ "error" }} - a harmless Twig expression - and allows the content. After Twig processes the template, the output contains <img src=1 onerror=alert(1)> which is rendered via {{ content|raw }} and executes in the victim’s browser.
