DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in SilverStripe, which can be
exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks.
Input passed via the "Title" parameter to admin/EditForm when
creating a page is not properly sanitised before being used. This can
be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be
executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site
when the malicious data is being unpublished, deleted, or
republished.
Successful exploitation requires "Content Authors" privileges.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.4.6. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
