The backend login has a basic brute force protection implementation which pauses for 5 seconds if wrong credentials are given. This pause however could be bypassed by forging a special request, making brute force attacks on backend editor credentials more feasible.

It has been discovered, that editors with access to the file list module could list all files names and folder names in the root directory of a TYPO3 installation. Modification of files, listing further nested directories or retrieving file contents was not possible. A valid backend user account is needed to exploit this vulnerability.

It has been discovered that link tags generated by typolink functionality in the website's frontend are vulnerable to cross-site scripting - values being assigned to HTML attributes have not been parsed correctly. A valid backend user account is needed to exploit this vulnerability. As second and separate vulnerability in the filelist module of the backend user interface has been referenced with this advisory as well. Error messages being shown after using a malicious name for renaming a file are not propery encoded, thus vulnerable to cross-site scripting. A valid backend user account is needed to exploit this vulnerability.

It has been discovered that TYPO3 is susceptible to session fixation. If a user authenticates while anonymous session data is present, the session id is not changed. This makes it possible for attackers to generate a valid session id, trick users into using this session id (e.g. by leveraging a different Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability) and then maybe getting access to an authenticated session.

It has been discovered, that editors with access to file meta data table could change, create or delete metadata of files which are not within their file mounts.

## Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of CVE-2023-46104. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ## Original Description With correct CVE version ranges for affected Apache Superset. Uncontrolled resource consumption can be triggered by authenticated attacker that uploads a malicious ZIP to import database, dashboards or datasets.   This vulnerability exists in Apache Superset versions up to and including 2.1.2 and versions 3.0.0, 3.0.1.

A request URL with arbitrary arguments, but still pointing to the home page of a TYPO3 installation can be cached if the configuration option config.prefixLocalAnchors is used with the values "all" or "cached". The impact of this vulnerability is that unfamiliar looking links to the home page can end up in the cache, which leads to a reload of the page in the browser when section links are followed by web page visitors, instead of just directly jumping to the requested section of the page. TYPO3 versions 4.6.x and higher are only affected if the homepage is not a shortcut to a different page.

Failing to properly validate the HTTP host-header TYPO3 CMS is susceptible to host spoofing. TYPO3 uses the HTTP host-header to generate absolute URLs in several places like 404 handling, http(s) enforcement, password reset links and many more. Since the host header itself is provided by the client it can be forged to any value, even in a name based virtual hosts environment. A blog post describes this problem in great detail.

Two Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities have been discovered in Alkacon's OpenCMS affecting version 16, which could allow a user: with sufficient privileges to create and modify web pages through the admin panel, can execute malicious JavaScript code, after inserting code in the `title` field. Another could having the roles of gallery editor or VFS resource manager will have the permission to upload images in the .svg format containing JavaScript code. The code will be executed the moment another user accesses the image.

The swiftmailer library in use allows to execute arbitrary shell commands if the "From" header comes from a non-trusted source and no "Return-Path" is configured. Affected are only TYPO3 installation the configuration option ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MAIL']['transport'] ``` is set to "sendmail". Installations with the default configuration are not affected.
