Aureus ERP vulnerability

What happened

Aureus ERP through 1.6.0, fixed in commit 53ad76d, stores uploaded SVG files on its public disk and serves them from the application origin, allowing authenticated users to upload malicious SVG files containing JavaScript. Attackers can craft SVG files with script elements that execute in the application's origin when the file URL is opened directly, enabling session cookie theft and CSRF token exfiltration.

Affected versions

Aureus ERP: 0 through 1.6.0 (semver) Fixed: See vendor advisory.
