Unauthorization vulnerability in the management of workflow definitions in OpenKM Community Edition. The REST endpoints registerProcessDefinition and runProcessDefinition require authentication but do not verify roles in the WorkflowService or in lower layers. An attacker with the ROLEUSER role can register and execute a process definition containing BeanShell scripts, allowing them to execute Java code and operating system commands with the service’s privileges. In the official Docker image, the process runs as root.

Vulnerability due to inadequate restriction of references to external XML entities in OpenKM Community Edition. The XML processing in FormUtils / LocalEntityResolver does not properly restrict the resolution of external resources. An authenticated remote attacker with the ROLEUSER role can exploit the flaw via a REST request. In the 6.3.x branch, this allows the attacker to trigger HTTP requests under their control (SSRF); in 7.0.3, it allows the attacker to read local files and access internal HTTP resources from the server.

OpenKM 6.3.12 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary Java/BeanShell code through the /admin/Scripting endpoint. Attackers can submit malicious script content with an action=Evaluate parameter to execute operating system commands in the context of the OpenKM application server.

OpenKM 6.3.12 contains an unrestricted SQL execution vulnerability that allows authenticated administrative users to execute arbitrary SQL statements against the application database via the DatabaseQuery interface. Attackers can submit malicious SQL queries through the qs parameter to the /admin/DatabaseQuery endpoint to extract sensitive data including usernames and password hashes from the OKMUSER table, modify permissions, or delete database records.

OpenKM 6.3.12 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability in the administrative scripting interface at /admin/Scripting that allows authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files by supplying an attacker-controlled filesystem path through the fsPath parameter with action=Load. Attackers can exploit this to access sensitive files including /etc/passwd, configuration files containing database credentials, and JVM keystores accessible to the OpenKM process.

OpenKM Community Edition 6.3.12 is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in the user account creation interface. The Name field accepts script tags and the Email field is vulnerable when the POST request is modified to include encoded script tags, by passing frontend validation.

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability was discovered in OpenKM Community Edition on or before version 6.3.12. The vulnerability exists in /admin/DatabaseQuery, which allows an attacker to manipulate a victim with administrative privileges to execute arbitrary SQL commands.

A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in OpenKM version 7.1.40 (dbb6e88) With Professional Extension that allows an authenticated user to upload a note on a file which acts as a stored XSS payload. Any user who opens the note of a document file will trigger the XSS.

An issue discovered in OpenKM v6.3.10 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via the XMLTextExtractor function.

If an attacker has access to the console for OpenKM (and is authenticated), a stored XSS vulnerability is reachable in the document "note" functionality.

Given a malicious document provided by an attacker, the OpenKM DMS is vulnerable to a stored (persistent, or "Type II") XSS condition.

A vulnerability was found in OpenKM up to 6.3.11 and classified as problematic. Affected by this issue is the function getFileExtension of the file src/main/java/com/openkm/util/FileUtils.java. The manipulation leads to insecure temporary file. Upgrading to version 6.3.12 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is c069e4d73ab8864345c25119d8459495f45453e1. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-213548.

OpenKM 6.3.11 allows stored XSS related to the javascript: substring in an A element.

OpenKM Community Edition in its 6.3.10 version and before was using XMLReader parser in XMLTextExtractor.java file without the required security flags, allowing an attacker to perform a XML external entity injection attack.

OpenKM Community Edition in its 6.3.10 version is vulnerable to authenticated Cross-site scripting (XSS). A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary code via de uuid parameter.

OpenKM 6.3.2 through 6.3.7 allows an attacker to upload a malicious JSP file into the /okm:root directories and move that file to the home directory of the site, via frontend/FileUpload and admin/repositoryexport.jsp. This is achieved by interfering with the Filesystem path control in the admin's Export field. As a result, attackers can gain remote code execution through the application server with root privileges.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in OpenKM before 6.4.19 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the Tasks parameter.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in OpenKM before 6.4.19 (build 23338) allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the Subject field in a Task to frontend/index.jsp.

admin/Auth in OpenKM 5.1.7 and other versions before 5.1.8-2 does not properly enforce privileges for changing user roles, which allows remote authenticated users to assign administrator privileges to arbitrary users via the userEdit action.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in servlet/admin/AuthServlet.java in OpenKM 5.1.7 and other versions before 5.1.8-2 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that execute arbitrary code via the script parameter to admin/scripting.jsp.

Unspecified vulnerability in the export feature in OpenKM before 2.0 allows remote attackers to export arbitrary documents via unspecified vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
