The fileDenyPattern functionality in the PHP file inclusion protection API in TYPO3 4.2.x before 4.2.16, 4.3.x before 4.3.9, and 4.4.x before 4.4.5 does not properly filter file types, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and access arbitrary PHP files, as demonstrated using path traversal sequences with %00 null bytes and CVE-2010-3714 to read the TYPO3 encryption key from localconf.php.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This TYPO3 flaw lets a remote attacker bypass file access restrictions in older TYPO3 releases and read PHP files that should stay private. The cited description specifically notes possible access to localconf.php, including the TYPO3 encryption key, when combined with CVE-2010-3714. Exposure is limited to legacy TYPO3 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4 installations below the fixed versions. Public-facing TYPO3 sites from that era are the main concern, especially if still internet-accessible or preserved in old hosting environments. Prioritize this when legacy TYPO3 is still online. The business risk is disclosure of sensitive application files and secrets, not just website defacement. If no affected TYPO3 versions exist, residual urgency is low. Mitigation focus: Upgrade TYPO3 4.2.x to 4.2.16 or later.; Upgrade TYPO3 4.3.x to 4.3.9 or later.; Upgrade TYPO3 4.4.x to 4.4.5 or later..
