Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVE-2024-24570

Medium
6.1/10

Summary

Statamic is a Laravel and Git-powered CMS. HTML files crafted to look like jpg files are able to be uploaded, allowing for XSS. This affects the front-end forms with asset fields without any mime type validation, asset fields in the control panel, and asset browser in the control panel. Additionally, if the XSS is crafted in a specific way, the "copy password reset link" feature may be exploited to gain access to a user's password reset token and gain access to their account. The authorized user is required to execute the XSS in order for the vulnerability to occur. In versions 3.3.8 through 3.4.16, and 4.0.0-alpha.1 through 4.45.0, the Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been patched, and the copy password reset link functionality has been disabled.

Cross-Site Scripting, commonly referred to as XSS, is the most dominant class of vulnerabilities. It allows an attacker to inject malicious code into a pregnable web application and victimize its users. The exploitation of such a weakness can cause severe issues such as account takeover, and sensitive data exfiltration. Because of the prevalence of XSS vulnerabilities and their high rate of exploitation, it has remained in the OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities for years.
