Security Fixes

  • Remediated CVE-2022-21829 - Concrete CMS Versions 9.0.0 through 9.0.2 as well as 8.5.7 and below can download zip files over HTTP and execute code from those zip files which could lead to an RCE. Fixed by enforcing ‘concrete_secure’ instead of ‘concrete’. Concrete now only makes requests over https even if a request comes in via http. Concrete CMS security team ranked this 8 with CVSS v3.1 vector: AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H Credit goes to Anna for reporting on HackerOne - https://hackerone.com/reports/1482520
  • Remediated CVE-2022-30117 - Concrete CMS Versions 9.0.0 through 9.0.2 as well as 8.5.7 and below allowed traversal in /index.php/ccm/system/file/upload which could result in an Arbitrary File Delete exploit. This was remediated by sanitizing /index.php/ccm/system/file/upload to ensure Concrete doesn’t allow traversal and by changing isFullChunkFilePresent to have an early false return when input doesn't match expectations.Concrete CMS Security team ranked this 5.8 with CVSS v3.1 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H.

  • Remediated CVE-2022-30120 - XSS in /dashboard/blocks/stacks/view_details/ - old browsers only. When using an older browser with built-in XSS protection disabled, insufficient sanitation where built urls are output can be exploited for Concrete CMS Versions 9.0.0 through 9.0.2 as well as 8.5.7 and below to allow XSS. This cannot be exploited in modern-day web browsers due to an automatic input escape mechanism. Dashboard Stacks page sort URLs are now sanitized. Concrete CMS Security team ranked this vulnerability 3.1 with CVSS v3.1 Vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N. Sanitation has been added where built urls are output.
