    ibexa/fieldtype-richtext allows access to external entities in XML

    GHSA-cj3w-g42v-wcj6

    Affected
    • Packagist ibexa/fieldtype-richtext >= 4.6.0-beta1, < 4.6.19
    Fixed in
    4.6.19· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact This security advisory resolves a vulnerability in the RichText field type. By entering a maliciously crafted input into the RichText XML, an attacker could perform an attack using XML external entity (XXE) injection, which might be able to read files on the server. To exploit this vulnerability the attacker would need to already have edit permission to content with RichText fields, which typically means Editor role or higher. The fix removes unsafe elements from XML code, while preserving safe elements. If you have a stored XXE attack in your content drafts, the fix prevents it from extracting data both during editing and preview. However, if such an attack has already been published and the result is stored in the content, it is unfortunately not possible to detect and remove it by automatic means. Credits This vulnerability was discovered and reported to Ibexa by Dennis Henke, Thorsten Niephaus, Marat Aytuganov, and Stephan Sekula of Compass Security Deutschland GmbH. We…

    Persistent Cross-site Scripting in Ibexa RichText Field Type

    CVE-2024-43369 · GHSA-hvcf-6324-cjh7

    Affected
    • Packagist ibexa/fieldtype-richtext >= 4.6.0, < 4.6.10
    Fixed in
    4.6.10· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact The validator for the RichText fieldtype blocklists javascript: and vbscript: in links to prevent XSS. This can leave other options open, and the check can be circumvented using upper case. Content editing permissions for RichText content is required to exploit this vulnerability, which typically means Editor role or higher. The fix implements an allowlist instead, which allows only approved link protocols. The new check is case insensitive. Patches - See "Patched versions". - https://github.com/ibexa/fieldtype-richtext/commit/59e9c1a9da60597f60cf7338bf289dccaa7e27ca (and follow-up https://github.com/ibexa/fieldtype-richtext/commit/0a3b830e8806d5169f697351fdc48ffd95a25c67) Workarounds None.
