Security Notice
It has been brought to our attention that in the log of cronjobs, there may be an unintended execution of HTML in case of an error. This can occur if, for example, a cronjob retrieves data from an HTML page and, in the event of an error, stores HTML code as an error message. To our knowledge, this vulnerability cannot be deliberately exploited by an attacker. Many thanks to @SoftCreatR for bringing this issue to our attention.
We have also received reports that a so-called "Self-XSS" attack can occur when uploading file attachments with specially crafted file names. This can only be exploited when running Linux and macOS, Windows does not allow the special characters in the filename. The impact is limited to the user themselves at the time of upload, there is no further impact. This vulnerability can never be exploited to attack other users or visitors of the site.
All WoltLab Cloud customers have already been patched to address these issues
