CVE-2023-22468 Information

Description

Discourse is an open source platform for community discussion. Versions prior to 2.8.13 (stable) 3.0.0.beta16 (beta) and 3.0.0beta16 (tests-passed) are vulnerable to cross-site Scripting. A maliciously crafted URL can be included in a post to carry out cross-site scripting attacks on sites with disabled or overly permissive CSP (Content Security Policy). Discourse’s default CSP prevents this vulnerability. This vulnerability is patched in versions 2.8.13 (stable) 3.0.0.beta16 (beta) and 3.0.0beta16 (tests-passed). As a workaround enable and/or restore your site’s CSP to the default one provided with Discourse.
