CVE-2024-35180 ("JSONP callback")

Affects OMERO.web <=5.25.0

back to Advisories

Synopsis

Check that the JSONP callback is a valid function

Background

There is currently no escaping or validation of the callback parameter that can be passed to various OMERO.web endpoints that have JSONP enabled. One such endpoint is /webclient/imgData/.... As we only really use these endpoints with jQuery's own callback name generation it is quite difficult or even impossible to exploit this in vanilla OMERO.web. However, these metadata endpoints are likely to be used by many plugins.

Affected Packages

OMERO.web <=5.25.0

Impact

Moderate severity.

Workaround

None.

Resolution

All OMERO.web deployments should be upgraded to at least 5.26.0.
