Synopsis

The remote webserver is affected by a vulnerability

Description

The version of TYPO3 installed on the remote host is prior to 9.4.0 < 9.5.42 ELTS / 10.0.0 < 10.4.39 ELTS / 11.0.0 < 11.5.30 / 12.0.0 < 12.4.4. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TYPO3-CORE-SA-2023-003 advisory.

- In multi-site scenarios, enumerating the HTTP query parameters id and L allowed out-of-scope access to rendered content in the website frontend. For instance, this allowed visitors to access content of an internal site by adding handcrafted query parameters to the URL of a site that was publicly available.
(CVE-2023-38499)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to TYPO3 9.5.42 ELTS, 10.4.39 ELTS, 11.5.30, 12.4.4 or later.
