This vulnerability affects Kirby sites and plugins that use the writer or list fields or that use $dom->sanitize(), Sane::sanitize(), Sane\Html::sanitize(), Sane\Svg::sanitize(), Sane\Xml::sanitize(), Sane::sanitizeFile() or $file->sanitizeContents() with untrusted input.
It was possible to inject malicious markup as children of an unknown HTML/XML tag, which would then be passed through Dom::sanitize() without being correctly sanitized according to the provided sanitization rules, causing a cross-site scripting (XSS) risk.
This vulnerability is of high severity for affected sites.
The default file upload protection is not affected, so sites that only validate uploaded files are not exposed to this vulnerability. The vulnerability can only be exploited by authenticated users.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a type of vulnerability that allows executing any kind of JavaScript code inside the site frontend or Panel session of the same or other users. In the Panel, a harmful script can, for example, trigger requests to Kirby's API with the permissions of the victim.
In a stored XSS attack, the malicious payload is saved into the content data and has the potential to affect other users or site visitors.
Such vulnerabilities are critical if you might have potential attackers in your group of authenticated Panel users. They can escalate their privileges if they get access to the Panel session of an admin user. Depending on your site, other JavaScript-powered attacks are possible.
A specific class of stored XSS is auto-firing, meaning the maliciously injected JavaScript code is executed by the browser when the page loads without the victim having to perform a specific action.
The Dom::sanitize() method allows removing unwanted or malicious elements or attributes from DOM documents (which includes HTML, SVG or arbitrary XML data). Sanitized content is supposed to be protected against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by removing their impact from untrusted content input.
Dom::sanitize() internally checks all nodes and attributes of the DOM document. It removes nodes, attributes, processing instructions, doctypes and namespaces that are not allowed according to the provided configuration. Nodes with tags that have been explicitly blocklisted are removed together with their children. Nodes with explicitly allowlisted tags are kept. If a tag is neither allowlisted nor blocklisted, nodes with that tag are unwrapped by (meaning the children are kept).

writer field sanitizes all entered content on the backend before it is saved to the content file.list field performs the same sanitization as the writer field since Kirby 5.4.1 (and in backported versions since Kirby 4.9.1).Kirby\Sane class package includes higher-level classes Sane\Html, Sane\Svg and Sane\Xml that all rely on DOM sanitization.Sane::sanitizeFile() and $file->sanitizeContents().file.create:before hook that cleans uploaded SVG/HTML files.Only the sanitization path (returning a cleaned document) is affected. The validation path is not affected by this vulnerability. Kirby's default upload protection performs validation, so malicious SVG or HTML uploads continue to be rejected.
In affected releases, Dom::sanitize() did not sanitize nodes that had been unwrapped from their parent node. The affected child nodes would be copied into the resulting sanitized document without being sanitized.
An authenticated Panel user who can edit a writer or list field can store markup that survives sanitization and executes as JavaScript when the content is rendered, both in the Panel and on the site frontend. This allows a lower-privileged editor to run scripts in the context of higher-privileged users (for example admins) who view the content ("stored XSS"). Where a plugin or custom code cleans uploaded SVG/HTML with the Sane API, the same flaw leaves active content in the stored file, which executes when the file is served.
The problem has been patched in Kirby 4.9.4 and Kirby 5.4.4. Please update to one of these or a later version to fix the vulnerability.
In all of the mentioned releases, Dom::unwrap() now moves the allowed children to the parent instead of cloning them, so the exact nodes remain in the document and are covered by the sanitization pass.
Note that content that was passed through the sanitizer and stored as field content before the patch may contain malicious content that was not properly sanitized due to the vulnerable code. If you cannot rule out attackers under the authenticated users of a security-critical site, we advise reviewing the content for possible attacks or to re-sanitize all content of affected fields.
