DescriptionCVE.org

Sulu is an open-source PHP content management system based on the Symfony framework. Prior to versions 2.6.25 and 3.0.8, src/Sulu/Bundle/MediaBundle/Controller/MediaStreamController.php allows the /media/{id}/download/{slug} route and its administration variant to honor the inline query parameter for scriptable MIME types. The vulnerable stored Content-Type values include text/html, application/xhtml+xml, text/xml, and application/xml. An attacker with media upload permission can store an HTML, XHTML, or XML document and create a link using inline=1, causing the application to return the file on the Sulu origin instead of forcing Content-Disposition attachment. When an authenticated victim opens the link, attacker-controlled JavaScript can execute with the victim's Sulu-origin session and can read data or perform actions as that victim. This issue is fixed in versions 2.6.25 and 3.0.8.

AnalysisAI

Stored XSS in Sulu CMS prior to versions 2.6.25 and 3.0.8 allows an authenticated attacker with media upload permissions to execute attacker-controlled JavaScript in a victim's browser on the Sulu origin. By uploading an HTML, XHTML, or XML file and crafting a download URL with the inline=1 query parameter, the attacker bypasses the expected Content-Disposition: attachment behavior, causing the browser to render the document instead of downloading it. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a Sulu CMS account with media upload permission - at minimum an editor-level role. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 score of 5.4 Medium accurately encodes the key constraints: network-reachable delivery (AV:N), low complexity once upload access exists (AC:L), requiring a low-privilege authenticated account such as an editor role (PR:L), user interaction via clicking a crafted link (UI:R), with scope change (S:C) because the exploit executes in the victim's authenticated browser session rather than the attacker's. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade Sulu CMS to version 2.6.25 on the 2.x branch or version 3.0.8 on the 3.x branch, as documented in the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-pp4x-ccxq-6r33 and confirmed by the fix commit d061094f5b7bb1d5e974544fce30bede9c7adf8e. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
