TYPO3 Vote rank for news Extension Cross-Site Scripting and SQL-Injection Vulnerabilities
The 'Vote rank for news' ('vote_for_tt_news') extension for TYPO3 is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability and an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
Vote rank for news 1.0.1 and earlier versions are vulnerable.
NOTE: Reports indicate that this extension in no longer maintained.
