In Zend Framework 2, the `Zend\Math\Rand` component generates random bytes using the OpenSSL or Mcrypt extensions when available but will otherwise use PHP's `mt_rand()` function as a fallback. All outputs from `mt_rand()` are predictable for the same PHP process if an attacker can brute force the seed used by the Marsenne-Twister algorithm in a Seed Recovery Attack. This attack can be successfully applied with minimum effort if the attacker has access to either a random number from `mt_rand()` or a Session ID generated without using additional entropy. This makes `mt_rand()` unsuitable for generating non-trivial random bytes since it has Insufficient Entropy to protect against brute force attacks on the seed. The `Zend\Validate\Csrf` component generates CSRF tokens by SHA1 hashing a salt, random number possibly generated using `mt_rand()` and a form name. Where the salt is known, an attacker can brute force the SHA1 hash with minimum effort to discover the random number when `mt_rand...

`Zend\Session` session validators do not work as expected if set prior to the start of a session. For instance, the following test case fails (where `$this->manager` is an instance of `Zend\Session\SessionManager`): ``` $this ->manager ->getValidatorChain() ->attach('session.validate', array(new RemoteAddr(), 'isValid')); $this->manager->start(); $this->assertSame( array( 'Zend\Session\Validator\RemoteAddr' =3D> '', ), $_SESSION['__ZF']['_VALID'] ); ``` The implication is that subsequent calls to `Zend\Session\SessionManager#start()` (in later requests, assuming a session was created) will not have any validator metadata attached, which causes any validator metadata to be re-built from scratch, thus marking the session as valid. An attacker is thus able to simply ignore session validators such as RemoteAddr or HttpUserAgent, since the "signature" that these validators check against is not being stored in the session.

In Zend Framework 2, `Zend\Mvc\Router\Http\Query` is used primarily to allow appending query strings to URLs when assembled. However, due to the fact that it captures any query parameters into the RouteMatch, and the fact that RouteMatch parameters are merged with any parent routes, this can lead to overriding already captured routing parameters, bypassing constraints defined in the parents. As an example, consider the following route definition: ``` array( 'user' => array( 'type' => 'segment', 'options' => array( 'route' => '/user/:key', 'defaults' => array( 'controller' => 'UserController', 'action' => 'show-action', ), 'constraints' => array( 'key' => '[a-z0-9]+', ), ), 'child_routes' => array( 'query' => array('type' => 'query'), ), ), ) ``` If the request URI was /user/foo/?controller=SecretController&key=inval...

Many Zend Framework 2 view helpers were using the `escapeHtml()` view helper in order to escape HTML attributes, instead of the more appropriate `escapeHtmlAttr()`. In situations where user data and/or JavaScript is used to seed attributes, this can lead to potential cross site scripting (XSS) attack vectors. Vulnerable view helpers include: - All `Zend\Form` view helpers. - Most `Zend\Navigation` (aka `Zend\View\Helper\Navigation\*`) view helpers. - All "HTML Element" view helpers: `htmlFlash()`, `htmlPage()`, `htmlQuickTime()`. - `Zend\View\Helper\Gravatar`

The `Zend\Http\PhpEnvironment\RemoteAddress` class provides features around detecting the internet protocol (IP) address for an incoming proxied request via the X-Forwarded-For header, taking into account a provided list of trusted proxy server IPs. Prior to 2.2.5, the class was not taking into account whether or not the IP address contained in PHP's `$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']` was in the trusted proxy server list. The IETF draft specification indicates that if `$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']` is not a trusted proxy, it must be considered the originating IP address, and the value of X-Forwarded-For must be disregarded.

Online Media Asset Handling (*`.youtube` and *`.vimeo` files) in the TYPO3 backend is vulnerable to denial of service. Putting large files with according file extensions results in high consumption of system resources. This can lead to exceeding limits of the current PHP process which results in a dysfunctional backend component. A valid backend user account or write access on the server system (e.g. SFTP) is needed in order to exploit this vulnerability.

The Install Tool exposes the current TYPO3 version number to non-authenticated users.

It has been discovered that cookies created in the Install Tool are not hardened to be submitted only via HTTP. In combination with other vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting it can lead to hijacking an active and valid session in the Install Tool.

Failing to properly encode user input, login status display is vulnerable to cross-site scripting in the website frontend. A valid user account is needed in order to exploit this vulnerability - either a backend user or a frontend user having the possibility to modify their user profile. Template patterns that are affected are - ###FEUSER_[fieldName]### using system extension felogin - <!--###USERNAME###--> for regular frontend rendering (pattern can be defined individually using TypoScript setting config.USERNAME_substToken)

Failing to properly encode user input, notifications shown in modal windows in the TYPO3 backend are vulnerable to cross-site scripting. A valid backend user account is needed in order to exploit this vulnerability.
