SCA: security update for october/backend (GHSA-fx3v-553x-3c4q)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414750

Description

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

- October is a free, open-source, self-hosted CMS platform based on the Laravel PHP Framework. In October
CMS from version 1.0.319 and before version 1.0.469, backend users with access to upload files were
permitted to upload SVG files without any sanitization applied to the uploaded files. Since SVG files
support being parsed as HTML by browsers, this means that they could theoretically upload Javascript that
would be executed on a path under the website's domain (i.e. /storage/app/media/evil.svg), but they would
have to convince their target to visit that location directly in the target's browser as the backend does
not display SVGs inline anywhere, SVGs are only displayed as image resources in the backend and are thus
unable to be executed. Issue has been patched in Build 469 (v1.0.469) & v1.1.0. (CVE-2020-15249)
