Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3943)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when processing data passed via unknown parameters. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


2) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3944)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

The Authentication component in TYPO3 6.2.0 before 6.2.3 does not properly invalidate timed out user sessions, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via unspecified vectors.


3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3946)

The vulnerability allows a remote #AU# to gain access to sensitive information.

The query caching functionality in the Extbase Framework component in TYPO3 6.2.0 before 6.2.3 does not properly validate group permissions, which allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary queries via unspecified vectors.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3941)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

TYPO3 4.5.0 before 4.5.34, 4.7.0 before 4.7.19, 6.0.0 before 6.0.14, 6.1.0 before 6.1.9, and 6.2.0 before 6.2.3 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted HTTP Host header, related to "Host Spoofing."
