DotNetNuke < 10.1.1 Unrestricted File Upload

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115031

Synopsis

DotNetNuke < 10.1.1 Unrestricted File Upload

Description

DotNetNuke CMS versions prior to 10.1.1 are affected by an unrestricted file upload vulnerability due to improper validation of uploaded files in the default HTML editor provider. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated users to upload files without proper restrictions, potentially leading to overwriting existing files on the server.

An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by uploading malicious files, which could lead to website defacement or, when combined with other vulnerabilities, the execution of cross-site scripting (XSS) payloads.

Solution

Upgrade to DNN Platform 10.1.1 or later.
