SCA: security update for marshmallow/nova-tiptap (GHSA-96c2-h667-9fxp)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 428605

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - marshmallow-packages/nova-tiptap is a rich text editor for Laravel Nova based on tiptap. Prior to 5.7.0, a
 vulnerability was discovered in the marshmallow-packages/nova-tiptap Laravel Nova package that allows
 unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary files to any Laravel disk configured in the application. The
 vulnerability is due to missing authentication middleware (Nova and Nova.Auth) on the /nova-
 tiptap/api/file upload endpoint, the lack of validation on uploaded files (no MIME/type or extension
 restrictions), and the ability for an attacker to choose the disk parameter dynamically. This means an
 attacker can craft a custom form and send a POST request to /nova-tiptap/api/file, supplying a valid CSRF
 token, and upload executable or malicious files (e.g., .php, binaries) to public disks such as local,
 public, or s3. If a publicly accessible storage path is used (e.g. S3 with public access, or Laravel’s
 public disk), the attacker may gain the ability to execute or distribute arbitrary files — amounting to a
 potential Remote Code Execution (RCE) vector in some environments. This vulnerability was fixed in 5.7.0.
