Plain English Summary

AI-powered analysis for quick understanding

This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript into the OpenProject application, potentially compromising other users' accounts. To exploit this, the attacker needs permissions to edit work packages and add attachments, and they could use this to target a System Admin for privilege escalation.

Technical Description

OpenProject is the leading open source project management software. OpenProject utilizes `tablesorter` inside of the Cost Report feature. This dependency, when misconfigured, can lead to Stored XSS via `{icon}` substitution in table header values. This attack requires the permissions "Edit work packages" as well as "Add attachments". A project admin could attempt to escalate their privileges by sending this XSS to a System Admin. Otherwise, if a full System Admin is required, then this attack is significantly less impactful. By utilizing a ticket's attachment, you can store javascript in the application itself and bypass the application's CSP policy to achieve Stored XSS. This vulnerability has been patched in version(s) 14.1.0, 14.0.2 and 13.4.2.
