TYPO3-CORE-SA-2026-010: Cross-Site Scripting in Indexed Search

Categories: TYPO3 CMS Created by Oliver Hader

It has been discovered that TYPO3 CMS is vulnerable to cross-site scripting.



Problem Description

Editors with access to create or modify page content were able to include HTML markup in page titles that were stored in the search index without sanitization. When displayed in frontend search results via the Indexed Search plugin, these titles were rendered without proper output encoding, resulting in a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability.

Solution

Update to TYPO3 versions 13.4.31 LTS, 14.3.3 LTS that fix the problem described.
