Duplicate Advisory: Grav: Stored XSS via quoted-attribute bypass in detectXss
📋 Description
Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-269c-h76q-8cxw. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
Grav versions from 1.5.2 through 2.0.12 contain a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Security::detectXss() function (system/src/Grav/Common/Security.php). The event-handler scan is anchored at < and uses [^>]*?, which cannot cross the first literal >; when a > appears inside a quoted attribute value the browser keeps the tag open and parses a subsequent event handler (e.g. onerror), so the detector and browser disagree. A page editor without admin.super privileges can save page content such as <img src=x title=">" onerror=alert(document.domain)>, which is accepted, stored, and executed in the site origin when any visitor (including unauthenticated users) views the page. Fixed in 2.0.13.
