New CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-524  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Umbraco.Forms to version 13.9.0, 16.4.0, 17.1.0 or higher.

Overview

Umbraco.Forms is an a form creator that's as easy to use.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use of Cache Containing Sensitive Information due to aggressive cache headers being set by default when processing uploads with ImageSharp, which can cause intermediary caches or CDNs to store and serve files that should require authentication. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive uploaded files by directly requesting cached URLs if a CDN is present, an authenticated user has previously accessed the file, and the attacker knows the form GUID, entry GUID, and image filename.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by adding middleware to set restrictive cache headers for form uploads or by configuring the CDN to bypass caching for URLs matching /media/forms/upload/*.
