Description
The download link for files uploaded through a form relied on a token that could be predicted. The file name in the request was also not verified in a way that resisted guessing. An unauthenticated attacker could use this to access files uploaded by other visitors. In addition, the token was shown in plain text in the text version of the notification email.

AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw allows an attacker to obtain files uploaded by other users through the form by using a predictable download token and an unvalidated file name. This results in unauthorized disclosure of possibly sensitive data without needing any authentication. The weakness originates from an insecure token generation and a missing validation of the file name, as described by CWE-338 and CWE-639.

Affected Systems

TYPO3 systems that have the public TYPO3 Fluid-Form by coding.ms extension installed are affected. No specific version numbers are provided, so any deployed copy of the extension should be assessed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.3 indicates significant risk, and the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of widespread exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. A likely attack path would involve a web request to the download endpoint with a guessed token and file name, which succeeds because the token is predictable and the name is not properly verified. Overall, this enables an unauthenticated attacker to read files uploaded by other visitors.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the TYPO3 Fluid-Form by coding.ms extension to the latest version that includes the access-control fix or apply the vendor‑provided patch.
  • Restrict the download endpoint to authenticated users or disable public file downloads until the fix is applied.
  • Ensure that download tokens are generated using a cryptographically secure random source and that they are not exposed in notification emails.
  • Validate and sanitize file names on request to reject suspicious or forged names and enforce strict file‑type checks.
