CVE-2022-22117: Rangerstudio Directus

Medium severity, CVSS 5.4. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In Directus, versions 9.0.0-alpha.4 through 9.4.1 allow unrestricted file upload of .html files in the media upload functionality, which leads to Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability. A low privileged attacker can upload a crafted HTML file as a profile avatar, and when an admin or another user opens it, the XSS payload gets triggered.

Affected products

• Rangerstudio Directus: from 9.0.1, up to and including 9.4.1; version 9.0.0 only
