tarteaucitron.js allows url scheme injection via unfiltered inputs

4.8 MediumFix available

tarteaucitron.js is a compliant and accessible cookie banner. A vulnerability was identified in tarteaucitron.js, allowing a user with high privileges (access to the site's source code or a CMS plugin) to enter a URL containing an insecure scheme such as javascript:alert(). Before the fix, URL validation was insufficient, which could allow arbitrary JavaScript execution if a user clicked on a malicious link. An attacker with high privileges could insert a link exploiting an insecure URL scheme, leading to execution of arbitrary JavaScript code, theft of sensitive data through phishing attacks, or modification of the user interface behavior. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.20.1.

This module enables sites to comply with the European cookie law using tarteaucitron.js.

The module doesn't sufficiently filter user-supplied markup inside of content leading to a persistent Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker needs to be able to insert specific data attributes in the page.
