Description

Meta

CVSS: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:F/RL:O/RC:C (4.5)

Problem

Failing to properly encode error messages, the components QueryGenerator and QueryView are vulnerable to both reflected and persistent cross-site scripting. A valid backend user account having administrator privileges is needed to exploit this vulnerability.

Solution

Update to TYPO3 versions 8.7.41 ELTS, 9.5.28, 10.4.18, 11.3.1 that fix the problem described.
