Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
TYPO3 CMS packages typo3/cms-core and typo3/cms, versions from 9.0.0 before 9.5.17 and from 10.0.0 before 10.4.2, are vulnerable to same-origin request forgery in the backend and install tool. An attacker who has uploaded a malicious file to the web server, or who can supply HTML through a third-party extension, can trick a logged-in backend or install tool user into executing it, which may create new admin users. Upgrade to typo3/cms-core or typo3/cms 9.5.17 or 10.4.2. As a further measure, disallow direct script execution for /fileadmin/ and /uploads/ via Content Security Policy.
