Multiple unpatched security flaws have been disclosed in open source and freemium Document Management System (DMS) offerings from four vendors LogicalDOC, Mayan, ONLYOFFICE, and OpenKM.
Cybersecurity firm Rapid7 said the eight vulnerabilities offer a mechanism through which “an attacker can convince a human operator to save a malicious document on the platform and, once the document is indexed and triggered by the user, giving the attacker multiple paths to control the organization.”
The list of eight cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws, discovered by Rapid7 researcher Matthew Kienow, is as follows –
- CVE-2022-47412 – ONLYOFFICE Workspace Search Stored XSS
- CVE-2022-47413 and CVE-2022-47414 – OpenKM Document and Application XSS
- CVE-2022-47415, CVE-2022-47416, CVE-2022-47417, and CVE-2022-47418 – LogicalDOC Multiple Stored XSS
- CVE-2022-47419 – Mayan EDMS Tag Stored XSS
Stored XSS, also known as persistent XSS, occurs when a malicious script is injected directly into a vulnerable web application (e.g., via a comment field), causing the rogue code to be activated upon each visit to the application.
