Craft CMS from 5.7.0 before 5.11.2 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability that allows authenticated control panel users to read SVG files by posting arbitrary paths to the app/icon-svg endpoint. Attackers can supply aliases or absolute paths, which are resolved without permission checks, to read any SVG-content file readable by the PHP process, including files outside the Craft installation.
