CVE-2023-3042 – CNA SHORTNAME: dotCMSORG UUID: 5b9d93f2-25c7-46b4-ab60-d201718c9dd8

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-3042

In dotCMS, versions mentioned, a flaw in the NormalizationFilter does not strip double slashes (//) from URLs, potentially enabling bypasses for XSS and access controls. An example affected URL is https://demo.dotcms.com//html/portlet/ext/files/edit_text_inc.jsp https://demo.dotcms.com//html/portlet/ext/files/edit_text_inc.jsp , which should return a 404 response but didn't. The oversight in the default invalid URL character list can be viewed at the provided GitHub link https://github.com/dotCMS/core/blob/master/dotCMS/src/main/java/com/dotcms/filters/NormalizationFilter.java#L37 .  To mitigate, users can block URLs with double slashes at firewalls or utilize dotCMS config variables. Specifically, they can use the DOT_URI_NORMALIZATION_FORBIDDEN_STRINGS environmental variable to add // to the list of invalid strings. Additionally, the DOT_URI_NORMALIZATION_FORBIDDEN_REGEX variable offers more detailed control, for instance, to block //html.* URLs. Fix Version:23.06+, LTS 22.03.7+, LTS 23.01.4+ En dotCMS, versiones mencionadas, una falla en NormalizationFilter no elimina las barras dobles (//) de las URL, lo que potencialmente permite omitir XSS y controles de acceso. Un ejemplo de URL afectada es https://demo.dotcms.com//html/portlet/ext/files/edit_text_inc.jsp https://demo.dotcms.com//html/portlet/ext/files/edit_text_inc.jsp, que debería devolver una respuesta 404 pero no lo hizo. La supervisión de la lista predeterminada de caracteres de URL no válidos se puede ver en el enlace proporcionado de GitHub https://github.com/dotCMS/core/blob/master/dotCMS/src/main/java/com/dotcms/filters/NormalizationFilter.java #L37. Para mitigar, los usuarios pueden bloquear las URL con barras dobles en los firewalls o utilizar variables de configuración de dotCMS. • https://www.dotcms.com/security/SI-68 • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') •
