Problem Description: A request URL with arbitrary arguments, but still pointing to the home page of a TYPO3 installation can be cached if the configuration option config.prefixLocalAnchors is used with the values "all" or "cached". The impact of this vulnerability is that unfamiliar looking links to the home page can end up in the cache, which leads to a reload of the page in the browser when section links are followed by web page visitors, instead of just directly jumping to the requested section of the page. TYPO3 versions 4.6.x and higher are only affected if the homepage is not a shortcut to a different page.
Solution: Removing the configuration options config.prefixLocalAnchors (and optionally also config.baseUrl) in favor of config.absRefPrefix

The Content Editing Wizards component in TYPO3 4.5.0 through 4.5.31, 4.7.0 through 4.7.16, 6.0.0 through 6.0.11, and 6.1.0 through 6.1.6 does not check permissions, which allows remote authenticated editors to read arbitrary TYPO3 table columns via unspecified parameters.
The Content Editing Wizards component in TYPO3 4.5.0 through 4.5.31, 4.7.0 through 4.7.16, 6.0.0 through 6.0.11, and 6.1.0 through 6.1.6 allows remote authenticated backend users to unserialize arbitrary PHP objects, delete arbitrary files, and possibly have other unspecified impacts via an unspecified parameter, related to a "missing signature."
SQL injection vulnerability in the Extbase Framework in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.24, 4.6.x before 4.6.17, 4.7.x before 4.7.9, and 6.0.x before 6.0.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified vectors, related to "the Query Object Model and relation values."
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the tree render API (TCA-Tree) in the Backend API in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.21, 4.6.x before 4.6.14, and 4.7.x before 4.7.6 allows remote authenticated backend users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the function menu API in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.21, 4.6.x before 4.6.14, and 4.7.x before 4.7.6 allows remote authenticated backend users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Backend History module in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.21, 4.6.x before 4.6.14, and 4.7.x before 4.7.6 allows remote authenticated backend users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
SQL injection vulnerability in the Backend History module in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.21, 4.6.x before 4.6.14, and 4.7.x before 4.7.6 Due to missing encoding of user input, the history module is susceptible to SQL Injection and Cross-Site Scripting. A valid backend login is required to exploit this vulnerability.
The Backend History Module in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.21, 4.6.x before 4.6.14, and 4.7.x before 4.7.6 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote authenticated editors to read the history of arbitrary records via a crafted URL.
Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in the t3libdiv::quoteJSvalue API function in TYPO3 4.5.x before 4.5.19, 4.6.x before 4.6.12 and 4.7.x before 4.7.4 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via certain HTML5 JavaScript events.
