MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid, authenticated TYPO3 backend user account (PR:L) with page access to at least one site, and the 'analytics' extension must be installed and active. The attacker directly calls the extension's AJAX routes, which perform no authorization check against the backend module or dashboard widget, to read analytics data they are not entitled to. Limiting factors: exploitation is impossible without prior backend credentials, there is no path for anonymous or unauthenticated attackers, and exposure is bounded to analytics of sites to which the user already holds some page access. |
| Impact | This is a low-to-moderate priority issue despite being network-reachable. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) shows an authenticated backend user with low privileges can exploit it easily over the network with no user interaction, but PR:L is the critical limiter - this is a post-authentication broken-access-control flaw (CWE-862, Missing Authorization), not a path to initial access. No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, or public POC was provided, so there is no evidence of active or automated exploitation; the realistic threat is a malicious or curious insider rather than mass internet exploitation. Impact is confined to confidentiality of analytics data for sites the user already has page access to (VC:L), so the exposure is incremental rather than wholesale. One conflict to verify: the input CVSS 4.0 vector sets VI:L (integrity impact), but the description describes read-only retrieval of analytics data only, implying confidentiality impact with no integrity change - verify with the TYPO3 advisory, as the integrity metric appears overstated. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged TYPO3 backend user who should only see their own site's modules directly invokes the analytics extension's AJAX endpoints, which fail to verify module or dashboard-widget authorization, and reads analytics data for sites or widgets they are not permitted to view. Because the AJAX routes skip the access check entirely, no privilege escalation or credential theft is needed - only a valid backend session. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 20, 2026
Authenticated TYPO3 backend users can retrieve analytics data for sites they have page access to because the analytics extension's AJAX routes do not verify access to the related backend module or dashboard widget. This affects TYPO3 installations where the analytics extension is installed and active; exploitation requires valid backend credentials, and no public exploit code or active exploitation was identified at time of analysis, keeping risk low-to-moderate.
RemediationAI
Patch status: the vendor advisory is available at https://typo3.org/security/advisory/typo3-ext-sa-2026-031, but the exact fixed version is not provided in the input data, so confirm the patched release in that advisory before upgrading. Until then, disable the analytics extension if its dashboards and widgets are not required (removes the exposed AJAX routes but loses analytics functionality) or restrict backend access to trusted users and enforce least privilege (reduces who can exploit the missing check but does not fix it). Audit backend accounts and page-access assignments, and monitor backend AJAX/analytics access for unexpected retrieval by users who do not own the related module or widget.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue is a missing authorization check (CWE-862) in the TYPO3 'analytics' extension. TYPO3 backend AJAX endpoints are meant to serve module or dashboard-widget data only to backend users whose roles permit access to that module or widget, but the affected route handlers do not verify that entitlement. The supplied CPE, cpe:2.3:a:typo3:extension_'analytics':*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, identifies the extension itself rather than a specific version. The supplied CVSS 4.0 vector is network-reachable with PR:L, and the independent assessment aligns: a valid authenticated backend account with page access is required, there is no anonymous or unauthenticated path, and impact is confidentiality-only disclosure of analytics data without integrity or availability effects.

Lifecycle Timeline

The AJAX routes of the extension do not check whether a backend user has access to the related module or dashboard widget. Any backend user can therefore retrieve analytics data of the sites they have page access to.
