v4.5.6

⚠️ Security Warning and Notice ⚠️

Strapi was made aware of a critical security vulnerability that was patched in this release, for now we are going to delay the detailed disclosure of the exact details on how to exploit it and how it was patched as we are working with a security researcher to construct a detailed analysis and update the CVE assigned to this issue.

For now the delay timeline looks like we will release the detailed information in the next two (2) weeks and we STRONGLY advise all users update to Strapi v4.5.6 as quickly as possible. Please note that this security vulnerability can only be exploited if the malicious actor currently has access to your admin panel. Once we are confident that we have given adequate time for users to update to this release and we have our disclosure information ready for publication we will make it available.

If you are a Strapi Enterprise customer and would like to request additional information, please open a ticket with our support team and we will work with you to provide information as we are able to.

For those who are unable to update to this release, during our disclosure we will also provide instructions on how you can manually construct a patch and apply it using Patch Package and it's likely that we will construct some of these patches ourselves and make them available to you during our disclosure.

Finally we wanted to give a massive shout out to the security researcher who reported this vulnerability to us in the format that he did, the detail and information he provided was simply fantastic, once he has finished his own detailed log of the vulnerability we will provide a link so you can view the information from his side.
