TYPO3 is prone to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. GeneralUtility::getIndpEnv() uses the unfiltered server environment variable PATH_INFO, which allows attackers to inject malicious content. Affected versions include TYPO3 8.7.x through 8.7.50 ELTS, 9.x prior to 9.5.39 ELTS, 10.x prior to 10.4.34 ELTS, 11.x through 11.5.22, and 12.x through 12.1.3. Update to version 8.7.51 ELTS, 9.5.40 ELTS, 10.4.36 LTS, 11.5.23 LTS, 12.2.0, or later
