Improper authorization in the ToolGroupResource and RoleAjax REST/DWR endpoints in dotCMS dotCMS 21.02 through 26.06.22-03 on all platforms allows a low-privileged authenticated backend user to self-assign the administrative layout and self-grant the CMS Administrator role, then...
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in the Publish Audit API endpoints (/api/auditPublishing/get and /api/auditPublishing/getAll) in dotCMS Core 25.11.04-1 through 26.04.28-02 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read, modify...
A sandbox escape vulnerability exists in dotCMS’s Velocity scripting engine (VTools) that allows authenticated users with scripting privileges to bypass class and package restrictions enforced by SecureUberspectorImpl. By dynamically modifying the Velocity engine’s runtime config...
dotCMS versions 24.03.22 and after, identified a Boolean-based blind SQLi vulnerability in the /api/v1/contenttype endpoint. This endpoint uses the sites query parameter, which accepts a comma-separated list of site identifiers or keys. The vulnerability was triggered via the sit...
In the System → Maintenance tool, the Logged Users tab surfaces sessionId data for all users via the Direct Web Remoting API (UserSessionAjax.getSessionList.dwr) calls. While this is information that would and should be available to admins who possess "Sign In As" powers, admins...
The "reset password" login page accepted an HTML injection via URL parameters. This has already been rectified via patch, and as such it cannot be demonstrated via Demo site link. Those interested to see the vulnerability may spin up a http://localhost:8082/dotAdmin/#/public/logi...
System->Maintenance-> Log Files in dotCMS dashboard is providing the username/password for database connections in the log output. Nevertheless, this is a moderate issue as it requires a backend admin as well as that dbs are locked down by environment. OWASP Top 10 - A05) Insecur...
In dotCMS dashboard, the Tools and Log Files tabs under System → Maintenance Portlet, which is and always has been an Admin portlet, is accessible to anyone with that portlet and not just to CMS Admins. Users that get site admin but not a system admin, should not have access to t...
In dotCMS, versions mentioned, a flaw in the NormalizationFilter does not strip double slashes (//) from URLs, potentially enabling bypasses for XSS and access controls. An example affected URL is https://demo.dotcms.com//html/portlet/ext/files/edit_text_inc.jsp , which should re...
In dotCMS 5.x-22.06, TempFileAPI allows a user to create a temporary file based on a passed in URL, while attempting to block any SSRF access to local IP addresses or private subnets. In resolving this URL, the TempFileAPI follows any 302 redirects that the remote URL returns. Be...
In dotCMS 5.x-22.06, it is possible to call the TempResource multiple times, each time requesting the dotCMS server to download a large file. If done repeatedly, this will result in Tomcat request-thread exhaustion and ultimately a denial of any other requests.
An issue was discovered in dotCMS core 5.3.8.5 through 5.3.8.15 and 21.03 through 22.10.1. A cryptographically insecure random generation algorithm for password-reset token generation leads to account takeover.
An issue was discovered in dotCMS core 4.x through 22.10.2. An authenticated directory traversal vulnerability in the dotCMS API can lead to Remote Code Execution.
dotCMS before 22.06 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access control and obtain sensitive information by using a semicolon in a URL to introduce a matrix parameter. (This is also fixed in 5.3.8.12, 21.06.9, and 22.03.2 for LTS users.) Some Java application frameworks, in...
An issue was discovered in the ContentResource API in dotCMS 3.0 through 22.02. Attackers can craft a multipart form request to post a file whose filename is not initially sanitized. This allows directory traversal, in which the file is saved outside of the intended storage locat...
Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type in DotCMS v5.2.3 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the component "/src/main/java/com/dotmarketing/filters/CMSFilter.java".
Incorrect Access Control in DotCMS versions before 5.1 allows remote attackers to gain privileges by injecting client configurations via vtl (velocity) files.
A reflected cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in dotAdmin/#/c/links of dotCMS 21.05.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands or HTML via a crafted payload.
A reflected cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in dotAdmin/#/c/containers of dotCMS 21.05.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands or HTML via a crafted payload.
A stored cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in dotAdmin/#/c/c_Images of dotCMS 21.05.1 allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted payload entered into the 'Title' and 'Filename' parameters.
Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in dotCMS v5.1.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by injecting a malicious payload into the "Task Detail" comment window of the "/dotAdmin/#/c/workflow" component.
dotCMS before 20.10.1 allows SQL injection, as demonstrated by the /api/v1/containers orderby parameter. The PaginatorOrdered classes that are used to paginate results of a REST endpoints do not sanitize the orderBy parameter and in some cases it is vulnerable to SQL injection at...
DotCMS Add Template with admin panel 20.11 is affected by cross-site Scripting (XSS) to gain remote privileges. An attacker could compromise the security of a website or web application through a stored XSS attack and stealing cookies using XSS.
dotCMS before 5.2.4 is vulnerable to directory traversal, leading to incorrect access control. It allows an attacker to read or execute files under $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/ROOT/assets (which should be a protected directory). Additionally, attackers can upload temporary files (e.g.,...
dotCMS before 5.1.6 is vulnerable to a SQL injection that can be exploited by an attacker of the role Publisher via view_unpushed_bundles.jsp.
