Concretecms vulnerabilities

Concrete CMS 9 before 9.5.3 was vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in the Feature, Feature Link, Hero Image, and Image blocks and before Concrete 8.5.21 in the feature and Image blocks because the external link URL was insufficiently validated by the link filter and was rendered without output escaping. A user with page-editing permissions (such as Add Block combined with Edit Contents on a single page) could store a crafted external link value that broke out of the link markup and injected arbitrary JavaScript. The script executed in the browser session of any user who subsequently viewed, previewed, or edited the affected page, which could lead to session hijacking and escalation of privileges up to full administrative takeover. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v4.0 score of 8.5 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks to KhanMarshai for reporting this issue.

Concrete CMS version 9.0 to 9.5.0 is vulnerable to Stored XSS via page name in the Atomik theme. A rogue editor can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the context of any authenticated user visiting the affected account pages. This can lead to session hijacking, credential theft, malicious actions performed on behalf of users, and potential privilege escalation. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 2.1 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to IDOR + wrong-authorization-level in the Express association Reorder dialog.  This can cause Cross-entity state tampering with view-only permission on one entry. To be affected, a website has to be using express and relying on express entity ordering. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 2.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Winston Crooker for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to CSRF via Backend\File::approveVersion. Victim with edit_file_contents permission is CSRF'd into publishing an attacker-chosen previously-uploaded version (downgrade to an older version of a file, or activation of a co-editor's unpublished version). The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 2.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Winston Crooker for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9 before 9.5.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) at concrete/controllers/backend/file approveVersion(). The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 2.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to IDOR in surveys. To be vulnerable, a site would have to be configured in such a way that both public and private surveys are present on the site. An unauthenticated attacker can vote in the restricted survey by submitting the restricted optionID through the public survey’s endpoint. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 6.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks  Zer0daySec https://github.com/Zee99y  for reporting

Concrete CMS below 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to password change without reauthorization and session-hardening bypass. The user-profile edit controller passes the entire raw POST array to UserInfo::update() without field whitelisting resulting in password change without requiring the current password  and also resulting in registered users able to disable the per-user-IP-pinning in the session validator which is meant to detect hijacking.  The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 5.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks 0x4c616e for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to Reflected XSS in Legacy Pagination via HTML attribute injection. Concrete\Core\Legacy\Pagination builds pagination links by raw-interpolating its $URL field into href="" (<a href="{$linkURL}" …>). Any authenticated admin or report viewer with access to `/dashboard/reports/forms/legacy` who clicks the crafted URL fires the payload in their session. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 6.0 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for reporting

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to unauthenticated page metadata disclosure across every page with a configured summary template, revealing the existence of private, draft, and restricted pages while leaking title, path, description, and author information. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 6.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Winston Crooker for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to IDOR. The '/ccm/frontend/conversations/get_rating' endpoint confirms existence and returns rating score for any message by ID. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 6.3 with Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Tristan Madani for reporting.

Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to IDOR. The '/ccm/frontend/conversations/message_page' endpoint returns the full content of any conversation message. An unauthenticated attacker can enumerate all conversation messages, including messages from restricted pages, member-only areas, and the moderation queue. File attachments with download URLs are also exposed. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 6.3 with Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Tristan Madani for reporting.
