Authenticated script execution via unencoded JSON-LD output
Published May 21, 2025 · Updated May 21, 2025
Cross-site scripting in [clickstorm] SEO allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts through crafted JSON-LD content. StructuredData::wrapWithLd inserts stored json_ld metadata directly between script tags without encoding characters that can terminate the element. A logged-in TYPO3 backend user must supply the content; the script runs when the affected output is rendered, enabling actions in the viewer's browser context.
