AI Analysis

Impact

The Content Consent extension in TYPO3 up to version 2.0.1 does not check whether a requested content element identifier is allowed by the plugin. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can request any element ID and view its content, bypassing normal access controls. This causes an insecure direct object reference that may expose sensitive internal content.

Affected Systems

TYPO3 systems using the content_consent extension through version 2.0.1 are affected. The issue does not extend to later releases, so upgrading beyond 2.0.1 removes the flaw.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.3 indicates a moderate severity, while the EPSS score is less than 1% and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit the IDOR without additional credentials, making it a realistic threat for publicly reachable TYPO3 sites. The risk is solidly moderate, with potential confidentiality impact if sensitive content is exposed.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Content Consent extension to the latest version (>=2.0.2).
