CVE-2026-105607HighAdded to mySites.guru 4 November 2026

Gridbox (com_gridbox) 2.20.4.2 - Unauthenticated File Deletion and Stored XSS in Comments and Reviews (fixed in 2.20.5.0)

Balbooa released Gridbox 2.20.5.0 on 4 November 2026 with four security fixes, rated High by the vendor: stored cross-site scripting in the Recent Comments and Recent Reviews widgets, stored cross-site scripting in individual reviews and replies, deletion of temporary comment and review attachments without path, ownership or CSRF checks, and deletion of form submission files without any authorisation check (an IDOR that the vendor says needed no login). The release also hardens CSRF and permission checks across actions that change data, file path checks, CSV exports (SQL injection and spreadsheet formula injection) and server-side validation in the store and booking apps. We confirmed the attachment deletion, CSRF and sanitisation changes by comparing the public 2.20.5.0 package with 2.20.4.2. Found by Balbooa in its own security review; CVE ids assigned through the Joomla Security Strike Team. Not a mySites.guru finding. The Joomla CNA has reserved CVE-2026-105607, CVE-2026-107129, CVE-2026-107130 and CVE-2026-107903; the records were not yet published when this rule was written, and Balbooa does not say which id is which fix. Balbooa lists Gridbox 2.20.4.2 and earlier as affected; this rule covers 2.20.4.2, and older versions are flagged by separate Gridbox rules that should also go straight to 2.20.5.0. Update to Gridbox 2.20.5.0.
