The "userModify" feature of Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) leading to privilege escalation. If an administrator goes to a malicious URL while being authenticated to the Silverpeas application, the CSRF with execute making the attacker an administrator user in the application.
The notification/messaging feature of Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 does not enforce access control on the ID parameter. This allows an attacker to read all messages sent between other users; including those sent only to administrators.
Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 administrative "Bin" feature is affected by broken access control. A user with low privileges is able to navigate directly to the bin, revealing all deleted spaces. The user can then restore or permanently delete the spaces.
The "Create a Space" feature in Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 is reserved for use by administrators. This function suffers from broken access control, allowing any authenticated user to create a space by navigating to the correct URL.
Silverpeas 5.15 through 6.0.2 is affected by an authenticated Directory Traversal vulnerability that can be triggered during file uploads because core/webapi/upload/FileUploadData.java mishandles a StringUtil.java call. This vulnerability enables regular users to write arbitrary files on the underlying system with privileges of the user running the application. Especially, an attacker may leverage the vulnerability to write an executable JSP file in an exposed web directory to execute commands on the underlying system.
