We’re pleased to release Concrete CMS 9.4.8, a maintenance update focused primarily on security and stability. This release addresses several reported vulnerabilities and includes a performance improvement for sites with large numbers of permission assignments.

We strongly recommend that all sites running Concrete CMS version 9 update to 9.4.8 to ensure they remain secure.

This release resolves a number of security issues including a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability (CVE-2026-3452) as well as several Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities affecting the Search block, Switch Language block, and Legacy Form block. Additionally, a CSRF validation issue in the Anti-Spam Allowlist configuration has been addressed.

As a reminder, security fixes are provided only for Concrete CMS version 9, and no further security patches will be released for version 8.
