SCA: security update for typo3/cms, typo3/cms-core, typo3/cms-form (GHSA-3vg7-jw9m-pc3f)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 409700

Description

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

- TYPO3 is an open source PHP based web content management system. In TYPO3 before versions 8.7.40, 9.5.25,
10.4.14, 11.1.1 due to improper input validation, attackers can by-pass restrictions of predefined options
and submit arbitrary data in the Form Designer backend module of the Form Framework. In the default
configuration of the Form Framework this allows attackers to explicitly allow arbitrary mime-types for
file uploads - however, default _fileDenyPattern_ successfully blocked files like _.htaccess_ or
_malicious.php_. Besides that, attackers can persist those files in any writable directory of the
corresponding TYPO3 installation. A valid backend user account with access to the form module is needed to
exploit this vulnerability. This is fixed in versions 8.7.40, 9.5.25, 10.4.14, 11.1.1. (CVE-2021-21357)
