Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to Stored XSS via OAuth integration name. The OAuth authorize template renders the integration name (admin-controlled) through Concrete's t() translation helper as a sprintf-style format. The <strong>...</strong> wrap is built by PHP string interpolation before t() runs, so the integration name lands in the translated output as raw HTML. A rogue admin could potentially snoop on login submissions.The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 7.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N  Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for reporting.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Concrete5 5.7.3.1.

Concrete CMS 9 to 9.4.2 and versions below 8.5.21 are vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the Conversation Messages Dashboard Page. Unsanitized input could cause theft of session cookies or tokens, defacement of web content, redirection to malicious sites, and (if victim is an admin), the execution of unauthorized actions. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 4.8 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Fortbridge https://fortbridge.co.uk/  for performing a penetration test and vulnerability assessment on Concrete CMS and reporting this issue.

Concrete CMS version 9 below 9.4.0RC2 and versions below 8.5.20 are vulnerable to CSRF and XSS in the Concrete CMS Address attribute because addresses are not properly sanitized in the output when a country is not specified.  Attackers are limited to individuals whom a site administrator has granted the ability to fill in an address attribute. It is possible for the attacker to glean limited information from the site but amount and type is restricted by mitigating controls and the level of access of the attacker. Limited data modification is possible. The dashboard page itself could be rendered unavailable. The fix only sanitizes new data uploaded post update to Concrete CMS 9.4.0RC2. Existing database entries added before the update will still be “live” if there were successful exploits added under previous versions; a database search is recommended. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability CVSS v.4.0 score of 5.1 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:L/SI:L/SA:L Thanks Myq Larson for reporting.
