Description
In TYPO3 CMS greater than or equal to 9.0.0 and less than 9.5.20, and greater than or equal to 10.0.0 and less than 10.4.6, in a case where an attacker manages to generate a valid cryptographic message authentication code (HMAC-SHA1) – either by using a different existing vulnerability or in case the internal encryptionKey was exposed – it is possible to retrieve arbitrary files of a TYPO3 installation. This includes the possibility to fetch typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php, which again contains the encryptionKey as well as credentials of the database management system being used. In case a database server is directly accessible either via internet or in a shared hosting network, this allows the ability to completely retrieve, manipulate or delete database contents. This includes creating an administration user account – which can be used to trigger remote code execution by injecting custom extensions. This has been patched in versions 9.5.20 and 10.4.6.

Technical Analysis
The prerequisites are important:
- need
encryptionKeyfromtypo3conf/LocalConfiguration.phpexposed
- need to have and identify a valid deserialization gadget chain (eg. with phpggc)
- need to identify the target PHP version (5.6, 7.2, 7.4, 8.1, etc ?) to be able to serialize the gadget chain and it to be executed correctly; is not leaked it may required to try all major versions manually
so weaponizing is difficult and requires luck and lot of technical informations
