Bludit is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in its image upload functionality. An authenticated attacker with content upload privileges (such as Author, Editor, or Administrator) can upload an SVG file containing a malicious payload, which is executed when a victim visits the URL of the uploaded resource. The uploaded resource itself is accessible without authentication.
The vendor was notified early about this vulnerability, but stopped responding in the middle of coordination. All versions up to 3.18.2 are considered to be vulnerable, future versions might also be vulnerable.
Bludit’s API plugin allows an authenticated attacker with a valid API token to upload files of any type and extension without restriction, which can then be executed, leading to Remote Code Execution.
This issue was fixed in 3.18.4.
