#vulnerability

`Zend_Json_Encoder` was not taking into account the solidus character (/) during encoding, leading to incompatibilities with the JSON specification, and opening the potential for XSS or HTML injection attacks when returning HTML within a JSON string.

zend-diactoros (and, by extension, Expressive), zend-http (and, by extension, Zend Framework MVC projects), and zend-feed (specifically, its PubSubHubbub sub-component) each contain a potential URL rewrite exploit. In each case, marshaling a request URI includes logic that introspects HTTP request headers that are specific to a given server-side URL rewrite mechanism. When these headers are present on systems not running the specific URL rewriting mechanism, the logic would still trigger, allowing a malicious client or proxy to emulate the headers to request arbitrary content.

In mid-March, 2010, the Dojo Foundation issued a Security Advisory indicating potential security issues with specific files in Dojo Toolkit. Details of the advisory may be found on the Dojo website: http://dojotoolkit.org/blog/post/dylan/2010/03/dojo-security-advisory/ In particular, several files in the Dojo tree were identified as having potential exploits, and the Dojo team also advised disabling or removing any PHP scripts in the tree when deploying to production.

Numerous components utilizing PHP's DOMDocument, SimpleXML, and xml_parse functionality are vulnerable to two types of attacks: - XML eXternal Entity (XXE) Injection attacks. The above mentioned extensions are insecure by default, allowing external entities to be specified by adding a specific DOCTYPE element to XML documents and strings. By exploiting this vulnerability an application may be coerced to open arbitrary files and/or TCP connections. - XML Entity Expansion (XEE) vectors, leading to Denial of Service vectors. XEE attacks occur when the XML DOCTYPE declaration includes XML entity definitions that contain either recursive or circular references; this leads to CPU and memory consumption, making Denial of Service exploits trivial to implement.

Zend_XmlRpc is vulnerable to XML eXternal Entity (XXE) Injection attacks. The SimpleXMLElement class (SimpleXML PHP extension) is used in an insecure way to parse XML data. External entities can be specified by adding a specific DOCTYPE element to XML-RPC requests. By exploiting this vulnerability an application may be coerced to open arbitrary files and/or TCP connections.

An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the `ebookmeta.get_metadata` function of ebookmeta before v1.2.8 allows attackers to access sensitive information or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via crafted XML input.

An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the `ebookmeta.get_metadata` function via lxml dependency allows attackers to access sensitive information or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via crafted XML input.

An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the image upload function of aimeos-core v2024.04 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via uploading a crafted PHP file.

`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.
