Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Grav CMS versions from 1.0.0 before 2.0.0 are affected. An attacker with an admin.super account can upload a crafted ZIP archive through the Direct Install tool, because the installer extracts it without limits on uncompressed size, entry count, or directory depth. This can exhaust disk space or inodes, crash the server through deep directory nesting, and leave files behind, which can deny service to users. The source says the fix is in version 2.0.0, so users should upgrade to Grav 2.0.0 or later.
