CVE-2026-79990
GQL entry mutation `siteId` bypasses schema site scope, enabling cross-site content read/write/delete
Craft CMS GraphQL entry mutation resolvers (saveEntry, deleteEntry) read siteIddirectly from$argumentswithout passing throughArgumentManagerprepareArguments(), which is the function that enforces site-scope filtering via array_intersect against the GraphQL schema’s allowed sites. The query path (ElementResolverprepareElementQuery) correctly calls prepareArguments()`, so queries to unauthorized sites return empty. But mutations bypass this entirely — an attacker with a token scoped to Site A can create, modify, or delete entries in Site B by passing siteId in the mutations argument.

Craft CMS 5.0.0-RC1 before 5.10.11 GraphQL Entry Mutation Site Scope Bypass
Craft CMS versions before 5.10.11 contain a site scope bypass vulnerability in GraphQL entry mutation resolvers that fail to validate siteId through ArgumentManager::prepareArguments(). Attackers with tokens scoped to one site can read, modify, or delete entries across unauthorized sites by passing siteId directly in mutation arguments.
