medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 422206
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- In OctoberCMS (october/october composer package) versions from 1.0.319 and before 1.0.466, any users with
the ability to modify any data that could eventually be exported as a CSV file from the
`ImportExportController` could potentially introduce a CSV injection into the data to cause the generated
CSV export file to be malicious. This requires attackers to achieve the following before a successful
attack can be completed: 1. Have found a vulnerability in the victims spreadsheet software of choice. 2.
Control data that would potentially be exported through the `ImportExportController` by a theoretical
victim. 3. Convince the victim to export above data as a CSV and run it in vulnerable spreadsheet software
while also bypassing any sanity checks by said software. Issue has been patched in Build 466 (v1.0.466).
