Description
Concrete CMS v9.2.1 is affected by an Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability via a Thumbnail file upload, which allows Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). NOTE: the vendor's position is that a customer is supposed to know that "pdf" should be excluded from the allowed file types, even though pdf is one of the allowed file types in the default configuration.
Public exploits
Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.
