Bludit

Bludit is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in its page creating functionality. An authenticated attacker with page creation privileges (such as Author, Editor, or Administrator) can embed a malicious JavaScript payload in the tags field of a newly created article. This payload will be executed when a victim visits the URL of the uploaded resource. The uploaded resource itself is accessible without authentication. Critically, this vulnerability could be used to automatically create a new site administrator if the victim has enough privileges.  The vendor was notified early about this vulnerability, but didn't respond with the details of vulnerability or vulnerable version range. Only versions 3.17.2 and 3.18.0 were tested and confirmed as vulnerable, other versions were not tested and might also be vulnerable.Show less

Bludit allows user's session identifier to be set before authentication. The value of this session ID stays the same after authentication. This behavior enables an attacker to fix a session ID for a victim and later hijack the authenticated session. This issue was fixed in version 3.17.2.Show less

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.Show less

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.Show less

Bludit version 3.16.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the post content functionality. The application performs client-side sanitation of content input but does not enforce equivalent sanitation on the server side. An authenticated user can inject arbitrary JavaScript into the content field of a post, which is stored and later rendered to other users without proper output encoding. When viewed, the injected script executes in the context of the victim’s browser, allowing session hijacking, credential theft, content manipulation, or other actions within the user’s privileges.Show less

Bludit version 3.16.1 contains a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the /admin/uninstall-plugin/ and /admin/install-theme/ endpoints. The application does not implement anti-CSRF tokens or other request origin validation mechanisms for these administrative actions. An attacker can induce an authenticated administrator to visit a malicious page that silently submits crafted requests, resulting in unauthorized plugin uninstallation or theme installation. This may lead to loss of functionality, execution of untrusted code via malicious themes, and compromise of system integrity.Show less

Bludit versions before 3.13.1 contain an authenticated file download vulnerability in the Backup Plugin that allows logged-in users to access arbitrary files. Attackers can exploit the plugin's download functionality by manipulating file path parameters to read sensitive system files through directory traversal.Show less

Bludit uses the SHA-1 hashing algorithm to compute password hashes. Thus, attackers could determine cleartext passwords with brute-force attacks due to the inherent speed of SHA-1. In addition, the salt that is computed by Bludit is generated with a non-cryptographically secure function.Show less

A security vulnerability has been identified in Bludit, allowing authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code through the Image API. This vulnerability arises from improper handling of file uploads, enabling malicious actors to upload and execute PHP files.Show less

A security vulnerability has been identified in Bludit, allowing attackers with knowledge of the API token to upload arbitrary files through the File API which leads to arbitrary code execution on the server. This vulnerability arises from improper handling of file uploads, enabling malicious actors to upload and execute PHP files.Show less

Bludit v3.14.1 was discovered to contain an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the component /admin/new-content. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via uploading a crafted SVG file. NOTE: the product's security model is that users are trusted by the administrator to insert arbitrary content (users cannot create their own accounts through self-registration).Show less

Bludit v3.14.1 is vulnerable to Stored Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via SVG file on site logo. NOTE: the product's security model is that users are trusted by the administrator to insert arbitrary content (users cannot create their own accounts through self-registration).Show less
