### Impact When a custom protocol handler returned a `ProtocolResponse` with a `url` and no `session`, Electron made the upstream request through `defaultSession` instead of the session that handled the protocol. A cached response could then be reused across otherwise isolated session partitions. Apps that use `ProtocolResponse.url`, omit `ProtocolResponse.session`, and rely on separate sessions to isolate content are affected. Apps that set an explicit `session`, or that do not isolate content across sessions, are not affected. ### Workarounds Set `ProtocolResponse.session` explicitly so the request uses the intended session's cache. ### Fixed Versions * `43.0.0` * `42.5.1` * `41.9.1` * `40.10.6` ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, email Electron at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
### Impact When following HTTP redirects, `net.fetch()` and `net.request()` did not restrict which schemes a redirect could target. A remote server could redirect a request to a local resource, and if the app returns or forwards the response body, local file contents could be disclosed. Apps are only affected if they make `net` requests to attacker-influenced URLs with redirects followed (the default) and expose the response body. Apps that only request fixed, trusted URLs are not affected. ### Workarounds Set `redirect: 'error'` or `redirect: 'manual'` on requests to untrusted URLs and validate any redirect target before following it. ### Fixed Versions * `42.0.0-beta.3` * `41.2.1` * `40.9.0` * `39.8.8` ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, email Electron at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
The XWiki blog application allows users of the XWiki platform to create and manage blog posts. Versions starting with 9.15 and prior to 9.15.7 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the Blog Post Title. The vulnerability arises because the post title is injected directly into the HTML <title> tag without proper escaping. An attacker with permissions to create or edit blog posts can inject malicious JavaScript into the title field. This script will execute in the browser of any user (including administrators) who views the blog post. This leads to potential session hijacking or privilege escalation. The vulnerability has been patched in the blog application version 9.15.7 by adding missing escaping. No known workarounds are available.
