1) Deserialization of Untrusted Data

EUVDB-ID: #VU23646

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 7.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: N/A

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data within the Extbase Request Handling. A remote attacker can submit specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system but requires the ability to sign the request with a valid HMAC-SHA1 key.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

4) Path traversal

EUVDB-ID: #VU23643

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: N/A

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within Extension Manager during extraction of manual uploaded ZIP archives. A remote attacker can trick an administrator into uploading a specially crafted zip file that contains directory traversal characters in its name and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
