| description | Typo3 News : CVE-2020-11063: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-001: Information Disclosure in Password Reset It has been discovered that time-based attacks can be used with the password reset functionality for backend users. This allows an attacker to verify whether a backend user account with a given email address exists or not. CVE-2020-11064: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-002: Cross-Site Scripting in Form Engine It has been discovered that HTML placeholder attributes containing data of other database records are vulnerable to cross-site scripting. A valid backend user account is needed to exploit this vulnerability. CVE-2020-11065: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-003: Cross-Site Scripting in Link Handling It has been discovered that link tags generated by typolink functionality are vulnerable to cross-site scripting - properties being assigned as HTML attributes have not been parsed correctly. CVE-2020-11066: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-004: Class destructors causing side-effects when being unserialized Calling unserialize() on malicious user-submitted content can result in the following scenarios : - trigger deletion of arbitrary directory in file system (if writable for web server) - trigger message submission via email using identity of website (mail relay) Another insecure deserialization vulnerability is required to actually exploit mentioned aspects. CVE-2020-11067: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-005: Insecure Deserialization in Backend User Settings It has been discovered that backend user settings (in $BE_USER->uc) are vulnerable to insecure deserialization. In combination with vulnerabilities of 3rd party components this can lead to remote code execution. A valid backend user account is needed to exploit this vulnerability. CVE-2020-11069: TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-006: Same-Site Request Forgery to Backend User Interface It has been discovered that the backend user interface and install tool are vulnerable to same-site request forgery.
