Impact
Any user with the right to edit his personal page can follow one of the scenario below:
Scenario 1:
- Log in as a simple user with just edit rights on the user profile
- Go to the user’s profile
- Upload an attachment in the attachment tab at the bottom of the page (any image is fine)
- Click on “rename” in the attachment list and enter {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println(“Hello from groovy!”){{/groovy}}{{/async}}.png as new attachment name and submit the rename
- Go back to the user profile
- Click on the edit icon on the user avatar
- Hello from groovy! is displayed as the title of the attachment
Scenario 2:
- Log in as a simple user with just edit rights on a page
- Create a Page MyPage.WebHome
- Create an XClass field of type String named avatar
- Add an XObject of type MyPage.WebHome on the page
- Insert an attachmentSelector macro in the document with the following values:
- classname: MyPage.WebHome
- property: avatar
- savemode: direct
- displayImage: true
- width: ]] {{async async="true" cached="false" context="doc.reference"}}{{groovy}}println(“Hello from groovy!”){{/groovy}}{{/async}}. You’ll find below a snippet of an attachmentSelector macro declaration.
- Display the page
- Use the attachment picker to select an image
- Hello from groovy is displayed aside the image
Example of an attachmentSelector macro declaration:
`{{attachmentSelector classname="MyPage.WebHome" property="avatar" savemode="direct" displayImage="true" width="]] {{async async=~"true~" cached=~"false~" context=~"doc.reference~"~}~}{{groovy~}~}println(~"Hello from groovy!~"){{/groovy~}~}{{/async~}~}"/}}`
Note: The issue can also be reproduced by inserting the dangerous payload in the height or alt macro properties.
