What is CVE-2022-22115?
CVE-2022-22115 is a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability in sismics docs, published on 10 Jan 2022. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Official description
In Teedy, versions v1.5 through v1.9 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the name of a created Tag. Since the Tag name is not being sanitized properly in the edit tag page, a low privileged attacker can store malicious scripts in the name of the Tag. In the worst case, the victim who inadvertently triggers the attack is a highly privileged administrator. The injected scripts can extract the Session ID, which can lead to full Account Takeover of the administrator, and privileges escalation.
