Problem
Password hashes were being reflected in the editing forms of the TYPO3 backend user interface. This allowed attackers to crack the plaintext password using brute force techniques. Exploiting this vulnerability requires a valid backend user account.
Solution
Update to TYPO3 versions 8.7.57 ELTS, 9.5.46 ELTS, 10.4.43 ELTS, 11.5.35 LTS, 12.4.11 LTS, 13.0.1 that fix the problem described.
Credits
Thanks to the TYPO3 framework merger Christian Kuhn and external security researchers Maximilian Beckmann, Klaus-Günther Schmidt who reported this issue, and TYPO3 security team member Oliver Hader who fixed the issue.

Is GHSA-38r2-5695-334w in any of your client repos?
Checking one package by hand is fine. Checking it across forty client projects is not. NPMscan reads the lockfiles in every GitHub repo you pick, finds each project with an affected typo3/cms-core, and gives you the command that fixes it.
