Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the t3lib_div::quoteJSvalue API function in TYPO3 4.0.13 and earlier, 4.1.x before 4.1.13, 4.2.x before 4.2.10, and 4.3.x before 4.3beta2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors related to the sanitizing algorithm.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects old TYPO3 4.x sites. A sanitizing function could fail to safely quote JavaScript values, letting a remote attacker inject script or HTML through unspecified paths. Business impact is mainly browser-side compromise: stolen sessions, defacement, phishing, or actions performed as a logged-in user. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running vulnerable TYPO3 4.x branches or custom code/extensions depending on the flawed API behavior. Modern TYPO3 deployments are unlikely to be affected unless legacy instances remain online. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless a vulnerable TYPO3 4.x site is internet-facing or business-critical. Prioritize confirmation and upgrade planning because XSS in CMS platforms can affect authenticated users and public trust. Mitigation focus: Upgrade TYPO3 beyond the affected versions listed in the CVE record.; Use TYPO3-SA-2009-016 as the authoritative vendor guidance source.; Retire or isolate unsupported TYPO3 4.x systems if upgrade is not feasible..
