Sprig Plugin for Craft CMS potentially discloses sensitive information via Sprig Playground

Description

Admin users, and users with explicit permission to access the Sprig Playground, could potentially expose the security key, credentials, and other sensitive configuration data, in addition to running the hashData() signing function.

This issue was mitigated in versions 3.7.2 and 2.15.2 by disabling access to the Sprig Playground entirely when devMode is disabled, by default. It is possible to override this behaviour using a new enablePlaygroundWhenDevModeDisabled that defaults to false.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:H)
They need powerful rights—admin, root, or similar—before this pays off.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:L)
Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
