Summary

Craft CMS 4.x (>= 4.0.0-RC1, < 4.17.0-beta.1) and 5.x (>= 5.0.0-RC1, < 5.9.0-beta.1) contain multiple stored cross-site scripting vulnerabilities where settings names and field option labels are rendered without sanitization (e.g., via the checkbox.twig template, which used {{ label|raw }}). An authenticated administrator (with allowAdminChanges enabled) can inject malicious payloads into section names, volume names, user group names, global set names, generated field names, checkbox/radio option labels, and custom source labels, causing arbitrary JavaScript to execute in other users' control-panel sessions. Fixed in 4.17.0-beta.1 and 5.9.0-beta.1.

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
