High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Jan 2, 2024 in PrestaShop/PrestaShop • Updated Jan 8, 2024

Package

composer prestashop/prestashop (Composer)

Affected versions

>= 8.0.0-beta.1, < 8.1.3
< 1.7.8.11

Patched versions

8.1.3
1.7.8.11

Description

Description

Some event attributes are not detected by the isCleanHTML method

Impact

Some modules using the isCleanHTML method could be vulnerable to xss

Patches

8.1.3, 1.7.8.11

Workarounds

The best workaround is to use the HTMLPurifier library to sanitize html input coming from users. The library is already available as a dependency in the PrestaShop project. Beware though that in legacy object models, fields of HTML type will call isCleanHTML.

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.
