    Package        : smarty3     Version        : 3.1.39-2+deb11u2     CVE ID         : CVE-2018-25047 CVE-2023-28447 CVE-2024-35226     Debian Bug     : 1019897 1033964 1072530

    Multiple vulnerabilties were discovered for smarty3, a widely-used PHP     templating engine, which potentially allows an attacker to perform an     XSS (e.g JavaScript or PHP code injection).

    CVE-2018-25047

        In Smarty before 3.1.47 and 4.x before 4.2.1,         libs/plugins/function.mailto.php allows XSS. A web page that uses         smarty_function_mailto, and that could be parameterized using GET or         POST input parameters, could allow injection of JavaScript code by a         user.

    CVE-2023-28447

        In affected versions smarty did not properly escape javascript code.
        An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary         JavaScript code in the context of the user's browser session. This         may lead to unauthorized access to sensitive user data, manipulation         of the web application's behavior, or unauthorized actions performed         on behalf of the user. Users are advised to upgrade to either         version 3.1.48 or to 4.3.1 to resolve this issue. There are no known         workarounds for this vulnerability.

    CVE-2024-35226

        In affected versions template authors could inject php code by         choosing a malicious file name for an extends-tag. Sites that cannot         fully trust template authors should update asap. All users are         advised to update.  There is no patch for users on the v3 branch.
        There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     3.1.39-2+deb11u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your smarty3 packages.

    Please note you will have to clear out all smarty generated files after     installing the update, by default in a templates_c directory.

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 ESM / 20.04 ESM / 22.04 ESM host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6550-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Smarty, that is integrated in the PostfixAdmin code, was not properly sanitizing     user input when generating templates. An attacker could, through PHP injection, possibly use this issue to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-29221)

    It was discovered that Moment.js, that is integrated in the PostfixAdmin code, was using an inefficient     parsing algorithm when processing date strings in the RFC 2822 standard. An attacker could possibly use     this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-31129)

    It was discovered that Smarty, that is integrated in the PostfixAdmin code, was not properly escaping     JavaScript code. An attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct cross-site scripting attacks (XSS).
