SCA: security update for getkirby/cms (GHSA-cq58-r77c-5jjw)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414018

Description

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

- Kirby is an open source file structured CMS. In affected versions Kirby's blocks field stores structured
data for each block. This data is then used in block snippets to convert the blocks to HTML for use in
your templates. We recommend to escape HTML special characters to protect against cross-site scripting
(XSS) attacks. The default snippet for the image block unfortunately did not use our escaping helper. This
made it possible to include malicious HTML code in the source, alt and link fields of the image block,
which would then be displayed on the site frontend and executed in the browsers of site visitors and
logged in users who are browsing the site. Attackers must be in your group of authenticated Panel users in
order to exploit this weakness. Users who do not make use of the blocks field are not affected. This issue
has been patched in Kirby version 3.5.8 by escaping special HTML characters in the output from the default
image block snippet. Please update to this or a later version to fix the vulnerability. (CVE-2021-41258)
