CVE-2005-4855: Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in eZ publish 3.5 before 3.5.5, 3.6 before 3.6.2, 3.7 before 3.7.0rc...

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in eZ publish 3.5 before 3.5.5, 3.6 before 3.6.2, 3.7 before 3.7.0rc2, and 3.8 before 20050922 does not restrict Image datatype uploads to image content types, which allows remote authenticated users to upload certain types of files, as demonstrated by .js files, which may enable cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or other attacks.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Some legacy eZ publish versions allowed authenticated users to upload non-image files through image upload fields. That could let a trusted but low-privileged user place browser-executed content, such as JavaScript, and potentially create cross-site scripting or related attacks against site users. Exposure is most likely on old eZ publish deployments where authenticated users can create or edit content with Image datatype uploads. Public exposure depends on whether uploaded files are reachable by browsers and whether untrusted users have upload rights. Treat this as a targeted legacy-platform risk. Prioritize remediation if the site is still internet-facing, supports user-contributed content, or gives external partners authenticated upload access. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected eZ publish versions to the fixed versions or later named in vendor guidance.; Confirm Image datatype uploads accept only valid image content types.; Restrict upload permissions to trusted roles until remediation is complete..
