CVE-2022-32114 (GCVE-0-2022-32114)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-07-13 00:00 – Updated: 2025-02-13 16:32 Disputed
VLAI
Summary
An unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the Add New Assets function of Strapi 4.1.12 allows attackers to conduct XSS attacks via a crafted PDF file. NOTE: the project documentation suggests that a user with the Media Library "Create (upload)" permission is supposed to be able to upload PDF files containing JavaScript, and that all files in a public assets folder are accessible to the outside world (unless the filename begins with a dot character). The administrator can choose to allow only image, video, and audio files (i.e., not PDF) if desired.
