Summary

TYPO3 is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.

Insight

Insight

Requesting invalid or non-existing resources via HTTP triggers the page error handler which again could retrieve content to be shown as an error message from another page. This leads to a scenario in which the application is calling itself recursively - amplifying the impact of the initial attack until the limits of the web server are exceeded.

Affected Software

Affected Software

TYPO3 version 9.0.0 through 9.5.24, 10.0.0 through 10.4.13 and 11.0.0 through 11.1.0.

Detection Method

Detection Method
