typo3/cms-extensionmanager
source listedECOSYSTEM: introduced 10.0.0; fixed 10.4.48
### Problem A vulnerability has been identified in the backend user interface functionality involving deep links. Specifically, this functionality is susceptible to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). Additionally, state-changing actions in downstream components incorrectly accepted submissions via HTTP GET and did not enforce the appropriate HTTP method. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the victim to have an active session on the backend user interface and to be deceived into interacting with a malicious URL targeting the backend, which can occur under the following conditions: * the user opens a malicious link, such as one sent via email. * the user visits a compromised or manipulated website while the following settings are misconfigured: + `security.backend.enforceReferrer` feature is disabled, + `BE/cookieSameSite` configuration is set to `lax` or `none` The vulnerability in the affected downstream component “Extension Manager Module” allows attackers to retrieve and install 3rd party extensions from the TYPO3 Extension Repository - which can lead to remote code execution in the worst case. ### Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 11.5.42 ELTS, 12.4.2

A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
