Cybersecurity researchers have identified three major security flaws in Sitecore Experience Platform (XP), threatening enterprise systems. These vulnerabilities include the use of hard-coded credentials for the 'sitecore\ServicesAPI' user with a weak password, and two methods for post-authenticated remote code execution. By exploiting these flaws, attackers can upload malicious ZIP files via specific API endpoints, ultimately leading to unauthorized execution of code. The discovery underscores the urgency for organizations using Sitecore to patch these vulnerabilities and secure their platforms against potential exploits.
The Sitecore Experience Platform has critical security flaws that could lead to pre-authenticated remote code execution, posing a significant threat to enterprise systems.
One significant vulnerability involves hard-coded credentials for the 'sitecore\ServicesAPI' user, allowing unauthorized access to APIs despite limited permissions.
The flaws can be exploited to upload a specially crafted ZIP file, which can result in remote code execution through a series of unauthorized actions.
Researchers warn that chaining these vulnerabilities may effectively compromise the Sitecore platform, emphasizing the need for prompt remediation.
