Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In In2code/femanager, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

The TYPO3 Extension femanager prior to versions 5.5.2, 6.3.3, and 7.0.1 is vulnerable to broken access control. The `usergroup.inList` validation can be bypassed resulting in new frontend users created by the extension may be members of groups that are restricted. The vulnerability is only exploitable if the field usergroup is available in the registration form. Versions 5.5.2, 6.3.3, and 7.0.1 contain patches.
