TYPO3 8.x < 8.7.27 / 9.x < 9.5.8 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 138612

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application which is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of TYPO3 installed on the remote host is 8.x prior to 8.7.27 or 9.x prior to 9.5.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
 - An insecure deserialization vulnerability exists in Typo3's FormEngine & DataHandler components.
 An unauthenticated, remote attacker, by sending a specially crafted object, to execute arbitrary code on an affected host (CVE-2019-12747).

 - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Typo3's Page TSConfig component due to improper validation of user-supplied input before returning it to users. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to click a specially crafted URL, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session.

 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Typo3's Page TSConfig component due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this execute arbitrary commands on an affected host.

 - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Typo3. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose potentially sensitive information.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version

Solution

Upgrade to TYPO3 8.7.27, 9.5.8 or later.
