Description
KUNO CMS is a fully deployable full-stack blog application. Versions 1.3.13 and below contain validation flaws in its file upload functionality that can be exploited for stored XSS. The upload endpoint only validates file types based on Content-Type headers, lacks file content analysis and extension whitelist restrictions, allowing attackers to upload SVG files containing malicious scripts (disguised as images). When users access the uploaded resource pages, arbitrary JavaScript executes in their browsers. This issue is fixed in version 1.3.14.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in KUNO CMS versions 1.3.13 and below, where the file upload functionality improperly validates uploaded files. It only checks the Content-Type header without analyzing the actual file content or enforcing extension restrictions. This allows attackers to upload SVG files containing malicious scripts disguised as images. When users view these uploaded files, the malicious JavaScript executes in their browsers, leading to stored cross-site scripting (XSS). The issue is fixed in version 1.3.14.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability can lead to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, where malicious scripts run in the browsers of users who access the uploaded SVG files. This can result in unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users, theft of sensitive information such as cookies or session tokens, and potential compromise of user accounts or site integrity.


What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?

Upgrade KUNO CMS to version 1.3.14 or later, which fixes the validation flaws in the file upload functionality. Until the upgrade can be applied, restrict or disable file uploads, especially SVG files, and implement additional server-side validation to check file contents and enforce extension whitelisting to prevent malicious script uploads.
