Overview

silverstripe/framework is a PHP framework forming the base for the SilverStripe CMS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection') due to the CSV export feature. An attacker can execute macros and scripts by inserting untrusted input into fields that are exported to CSV without proper sanitization, potentially leading to execution if the CSV is imported into software like Microsoft Excel.
