CVE-2022-23599 Details
Description
Products.ATContentTypes are the core content types for Plone 2.1 - 4.3. Versions of Plone that are dependent on Products.ATContentTypes prior to version 3.0.6 are vulnerable to reflected cross site scripting and open redirect when an attacker can get a compromised version of the image_view_fullscreen page in a cache, for example in Varnish. The technique is known as cache poisoning. Any later visitor can get redirected when clicking on a link on this page. Usually only anonymous users are affected, but this depends on the user's cache settings. Version 3.0.6 of Products.ATContentTypes has been released with a fix. This version works on Plone 5.2, Python 2 only. As a workaround, make sure the image_view_fullscreen page is not stored in the cache. More information about the vulnerability and cvmitigation measures is available in the GitHub Security Advisory.
A reflected cross-site scripting and open redirect vulnerability has been identified in Products.ATContentTypes versions prior to 3.0.6, which are used in Plone versions 2.1 to 4.3. The vulnerability arises when an attacker manages to cache a compromised version of the 'image_view_fullscreen' page, for example, using Varnish. This cache poisoning can lead to redirection of subsequent visitors who click on links on the affected page. While this issue typically impacts only anonymous users, it can vary based on individual cache settings.
Users can upgrade to Products.ATContentTypes version 3.0.6, which is compatible with Plone 5.2 (Python 2 only). For versions prior to 3.0.6, ensure that the 'image_view_fullscreen' page is not cached. This can be done by removing it from the 'Content item view' templates in the 'Caching' control panel.
