Cross-Site Scripting in SVG Sanitizer

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 12, 2020 in TYPO3GmbH/svg_sanitizer • Updated Jan 9, 2023

Package

composer t3g/svg-sanitizer (Composer)

Affected versions

< 1.0.3

Patched versions

1.0.3

Description

Slightly invalid or incomplete SVG markup is not correctly processed and thus not sanitized at all. Albeit the markup is not valid it still is evaluated in browsers and leads to cross-site scripting.

An updated version 1.0.3 is available from the TYPo3 extension manager and at https://extensions.typo3.org/extension/download/svg_sanitizer/1.0.3/zip/
Users of the extension are advised to update the extension as soon as possible.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
