An issue in Halo 2.25.4 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the PluginEndpoint.java, installFromUri method, and DefaultPluginApplicationContextFactory components
An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in Halo up to v1.6.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .md file.
An unauthenticated server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the Thumbnail via-uri endpoint of Halo CMS 2.21 allows a remote attacker to cause the server to issue HTTP requests to attacker-controlled URLs, including internal addresses. The endpoint performs a server-side GET to a user-supplied URI without adequate allow/blocklist validation and returns a 307 redirect that can disclose internal URLs in the Location header.
The reconcile method in the AttachmentReconciler class of the Halo system v.2.20.18LTS and before is vulnerable to XSS attacks.
Halo is an open source website building tool. Prior to 2.24.3, a path traversal vulnerability in the backup download endpoint allows authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem. The backup download endpoint (GET /apis/console.api.migration.halo.run/v1alpha1/backups/{name}/files/{filename}) in MigrationServiceImpl.download() resolves the backup filename via Path.resolve() without validating that the resolved path stays within the designated backups directory. Also, the Backup creation endpoint (POST /apis/migration.halo.run/v1alpha1/backups) does not sanitize the status fields during creation This vulnerability is fixed in 2.24.3.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the /plugins/-/install-from-uri endpoint of halo v2.22.14 allows authenticated attackers to scan internal resources via a crafted GET request.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the /themes/-/install-from-uri endpoint of halo v2.22.14 allows authenticated attackers to scan internal resources via a crafted GET request.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the /themes/{name}/upgrade-from-uri endpoint of halo v2.22.14 allows authenticated attackers to scan internal resources via a crafted GET request.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the /plugins/{name}/upgrade-from-uri endpoint of halo v2.22.14 allows authenticated attackers to scan internal resources via a crafted GET request.
A vulnerability was determined in Halo up to 2.21.10. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /actuator of the component Configuration Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to information disclosure. The attack may be performed from remote. This attack is characterized by high complexity. The exploitability is assessed as difficult. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
An issue in halo v.2.22.4 and before allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a crafted payload to the public comment submission endpoint
Halo is an open source website building tool. Prior to version 2.20.13, a vulnerability in Halo allows attackers to bypass file type validation controls. This bypass enables the upload of malicious files including executables and HTML files, which can lead to stored cross-site scripting attacks and potential remote code execution under certain circumstances. This issue has been patched in version 2.20.13.
Halo prior to 2.20.13 allows bypassing file type detection and uploading malicious files such as .exe and .html files. Specifically, .html files can trigger stored XSS vulnerabilities. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.20.13
Halo v2.20.17 and before is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in /halohost/archives/{name}.
halo v2.20.17 and before is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) in /apis/uc.api.storage.halo.run/v1alpha1/attachments/-/upload-from-url.
halo v1.6.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS).
In Halo, versions v1.0.0 to v1.4.17 (latest) are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the article tag. An authenticated admin attacker can inject arbitrary javascript code that will execute on a victim’s server.
ruibaby Halo 0.0.2 has stored XSS via the commentAuthor field to FrontCommentController.java.
ruibaby Halo 0.0.2 has stored XSS via the loginName and loginPwd parameters in a failed login attempt to AdminController.java.
Halo is an open source website building tool. A security vulnerability has been identified in versions prior to 2.19.0 of the Halo project. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute malicious scripts in the user's browser through specific HTML and JavaScript code, potentially leading to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.19.0.
Halo is an open source website building tool. A security vulnerability has been identified in versions prior to 2.17.0 of the Halo project. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute malicious scripts in the user's browser through specific HTML and JavaScript code, potentially leading to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack. Users are advised to upgrade to version 2.17.0+. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
Halo before 1.2.0-beta.1 allows Server Side Template Injection (SSTI) because TemplateClassResolver.SAFERRESOLVER is not used in the FreeMarker configuration.
Halo 1.1.0 has XSS via a crafted authorUrl in JSON data to api/content/posts/comments.
SSRF vulnerability in Halo <=1.3.2 exists in the SMTP configuration, which can detect the server intranet.
An issue was discovered in halo V1.1.3. A Zip Slip Directory Traversal Vulnerability in the backend,the attacker can overwrite some files, such as ftl files, .bashrc files in the user directory, and finally get the permissions of the operating system.
Halo V1.1.3 is affected by: Arbitrary File reading. In an interface that reads files in halo v1.1.3, a directory traversal check is performed on the input path parameter, but the startsWith function can be used to bypass it.
There is an Arbitrary file deletion vulnerability in halo v1.1.3. A backup function in the background allows a user, when deleting their backup files, to delete any files on the system through directory traversal.
An Arbitrary file writing vulnerability in halo v1.1.3. In an interface to write files in the background, a directory traversal check is performed on the input path parameter, but the startsWith function can be used to bypass it.
A Server-Side Freemarker template injection vulnerability in halo CMS v1.1.3 In the Edit Theme File function. The ftl file can be edited. This is the Freemarker template file. This file can cause arbitrary code execution when it is rendered in the background. exp: <#assign test="freemarker.template.utility.Execute"?new()> ${test("touch /tmp/freemarkerPwned")}
There is a XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in halo v1.1.3, The function of importing other blogs in the background(/api/admin/migrations/wordpress) needs to parse the xml file, but it is not used for security defense, This vulnerability can detect the intranet, read files, enable ddos attacks, etc. exp:https://github.com/halo-dev/halo/issues/423
