Subject: [Full-disclosure] SilverStripe CMS 2.4.7 <= Persistent Cross Site
	Scripting Vulnerability

1. OVERVIEW

SilverStripe 2.4.7 and lower versions are vulnerable to Persistent
Cross Site Scripting.


2. BACKGROUND

SilverStripe CMS is easy for both developers and content authors to
work with. The SilverStripe Framework keeps the code tucked away
neatly so that it can be accessed easily by programmers but does not
get in the way of content authors.


3. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION

The "Title" parameter was not properly sanitized upon submission to
"/index.php/admin/security/EditForm/field/Roles/AddForm" and
"/index.php/admin/RootForm" urls, which allows attacker to conduct
Cross Site Scripting attack. This may allow an attacker to create a
specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a
victim's browser.


4. VERSIONS AFFECTED

Tested on 2.4.7
