silverstripe/framework's `Member.Name` is not escaped

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 27, 2024 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated May 27, 2024

Package

composer silverstripe/framework (Composer)

Affected versions

>= 3.1.9-rc1, < 3.1.20
>= 3.2.4-rc1, < 3.2.5
>= 3.3.2-rc1, < 3.3.3
>= 3.4.0-rc1, < 3.4.1

Patched versions

3.1.20
3.2.5
3.3.3
3.4.1

Description

The core template framework/templates/Includes/GridField_print.ss uses "Printed by $Member.Name".

If the currently logged in members first name or surname contain XSS, this prints the raw HTML out, because Member->getName() just returns the raw FirstName + Surname as a string, which is injected directly.

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.
