SQL injection vulnerability in index.php in TYPO3 4.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the showUid parameter. NOTE: the TYPO3 Security Team disputes this report, stating that "there is no such vulnerability... The showUid parameter is generally used in third-party TYPO3 extensions - not in TYPO3 Core.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old, disputed TYPO3 SQL injection report. The CVE says TYPO3 4.0 index.php could be abused through showUid, but the TYPO3 Security Team disputed that this was a core TYPO3 vulnerability. Exposure is most plausible on legacy TYPO3 4.0 sites using third-party extensions or custom code that process showUid unsafely. Core TYPO3 exposure is disputed by the vendor security team. Low immediate priority unless legacy TYPO3 4.0 or old extensions are still internet-facing. The report is disputed and lacks confirmed impact details, but unsupported CMS components remain operational risk. Mitigation focus: Inventory any remaining TYPO3 4.0 deployments.; Identify third-party extensions or custom code using showUid.; Check TYPO3 and extension vendor guidance for confirmed fixes..
