Statamic is missing authorization check on taxonomy term creation via fieldtype

Published Mar 20, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Statamic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). Prior to versions 5.73.14 and 6.7.0, low-privileged Control Panel users could create taxonomy terms by submitting requests to the field action processing endpoint with attacker-controlled field definitions. This bypasses the authorization checks enforced on the standard taxonomy term creation endpoint. This has been fixed in 5.73.14 and 6.7.0.
