Technical details
A missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) exists in Formie's administrative settings routes. In affected versions, the server side did not consistently enforce the 'formie-accessSettings' permission for specific control panel routes, such as /admin/formie/settings and /admin/formie/settings/import-export. An authenticated Craft CMS control panel user with minimal Formie access can bypass intended restrictions to view or modify global plugin settings. The vulnerability is resolved in version 3.1.28 by enforcing the required permission across all settings controllers and actions.
