Overview

typo3/cms is a free open source Content Management Framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Security Misconfiguration. When trying to change the type of an existing backend user, the backend form is reloaded in order to reflect changed configuration possibilities. This can lead to an account with empty credentials. This weakness cannot be directly exploited and requires interaction on purpose by some backend user having according privileges.
