Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
In TYPO3 CMS 10.4.0 through 10.4.1, it has been discovered that time-based attacks can be used with the password reset functionality for backend users. This allows an attacker to mount user enumeration based on email addresses assigned to backend user accounts. This has been fixed in 10.4.2.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2020-11063 Advisory: Information Disclosure in Password Reset IDs: CVE-2020-11063, GHSA-347x-877p-hcwx Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2020-11063 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:29 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Low (CVSS 3.7) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: typo3/cms-core 10.4.2; typo3/cms 10.4.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - Packagist typo3/cms-core: affected >= 10.0.0, < 10.4.2; fixed in 10.4.2 - Packagist typo3/cms: affected >= 10.0.0, < 10.4.2; fixed in 10.4.2 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - Packagist typo3/cms-core: check the installed version with your package manager. - Packagist typo3/cms: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on typo3/cms-core, typo3/cms. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-347x-877p-hcwx (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-347x-877p-hcwx lists affected ranges: Packagist typo3/cms-core >=10.0.0 =10.0.0 <10.4.2) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
