Summary
eZ Publish Information disclosure in backend content tree menu
This security advisory fixes an information disclosure vulnerability in the legacy admin content tree menu. If a view has been disabled in site.ini [SiteAccessRules] Rules, and an attacker accesses the backend with the URL to this module, then the tree menu may be displayed. Since the tree menu may contain hidden items, this may lead to information disclosure. We recommend that you install this Security Update as soon as possible.
To install, use Composer to update to one of the "Resolving versions" mentioned above, or apply this patch manually: https://github.com/ezsystems/ezpublish-legacy/commit/a4a0470f8d80f012fe14e4f8ab11c7d14375986c

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG? GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG is a high-severity security vulnerability in ezsystems/ezpublish-legacy (composer), affecting versions >= 2011.0.0, < 2017.8.1.1. It is fixed in 2017.8.1.1, 5.4.10.1, 5.3.12.2.
- Which versions of ezsystems/ezpublish-legacy are affected by GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG? ezsystems/ezpublish-legacy (composer) versions >= 2011.0.0, < 2017.8.1.1 is affected.
- Is there a fix for GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG? Yes. GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG is fixed in 2017.8.1.1, 5.4.10.1, 5.3.12.2. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether GHSA-CC2J-92JQ-WGJG is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
