Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to CSRF via Backend\File::approveVersion. Victim with edit_file_contents permission is CSRF'd into publishing an attacker-chosen previously-uploaded version (downgrade to an older version of a file, or activation of a co-editor's unpublished version). Thanks Winston Crooker for reporting.
Update concrete5/concrete5 to 9.5.1 if you use the affected versions. Test the change in a non-production environment first.

AI coding agents often install or upgrade packages automatically in composer. A low vulnerability in a dependency can be pulled into a project through a normal install or update without a human reviewing the change, expanding the blast radius from a single package to every agent workspace that depends on it.
