Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in TYPO3 4.5.31 (Content Management System) and classified as problematic. This issue affects some unknown functionality of the component (Old) Form Content Element. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a access control vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-264. Impacted is confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

The (old) Form Content Element component in TYPO3 4.5.0 through 4.5.31, 4.7.0 through 4.7.16, 6.0.0 through 6.0.11, and 6.1.0 through 6.1.6 allows remote authenticated editors to generate arbitrary HMAC signatures and bypass intended access restrictions via unspecified vectors.

The weakness was shared 12/10/2013 by Franz Jahn with TYPO3 Security Team as TYPO3-CORE-SA-2013-004: Multiple Vulnerabilities in TYPO3 CMS as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is shared at typo3.org. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2013-7081 since 12/11/2013. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1068 for this issue. The advisory points out:

Editors that have access to the (old) form content element were able to generate arbitrary signatures (HMACs) that could be used in contexts which the editor should not have access to. As a precaution we changed the generation of the signature in a way to prevent usage in a different context. The old form content element is used by TYPO3 if the delivered extension "form" is not active.

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 71782 (Debian DSA-2834-1 : typo3-src - several vulnerabilities), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Debian Local Security Checks. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 175249 (Debian Security Update for typo3-src (DSA-2834-1)).
