Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
An issue was discovered in the Kitodo.Presentation (aka dif) extension before 2.3.2, 3.x before 3.2.3, and 3.3.x before 3.3.4 for TYPO3. A missing access check in an eID script allows an unauthenticated user to submit arbitrary URLs to this component. This results in SSRF, allowing attackers to view the content of any file or webpage the webserver has access to.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Kitodo.Presentation TYPO3 extension before versions 2.3.2, 3.2.3, and 3.3.4 contains a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. An eID script lacks proper access control, allowing unauthenticated attackers to submit arbitrary URLs. This enables viewing of any file or webpage accessible to the webserver, including local file system contents.

MitigationUpgrade the Kitodo.Presentation extension to version 2.3.2, 3.2.3, 3.3.4 or later, which contains the access check fix. If immediate patching is not possible, disable or restrict access to the vulnerable eID script via TYPO3 configuration or web server rules.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Kitodo.Presentation extension is installed
    Check the TYPO3 extension manager or list installed extensions for 'Kitodo.presentation' or 'kitodo_presentation'
    Affected if The extension appears in the installed extensions list
  2. Identify installed version number
    In TYPO3 extension manager, view the version details of the Kitodo.Presentation extension, or check the ext_emconf.php file in the extension directory
    Affected if Version is < 2.3.2, OR >= 3.0.0 and < 3.2.3, OR >= 3.3.0 and < 3.3.4
  3. Locate the vulnerable eID script
    Search for the eID script file in the extension directory, typically named 'eId.php' or similar in the ext/kitodo_presentation/ directory
    Affected if The eID script file exists in the extension directory
  4. Verify the eID endpoint is accessible
    Attempt to access the eID endpoint via a web request to a URL pattern like /?eID=kitodo_presentation or /index.php?eID=kitodo_presentation (use a non-malicious test URL if testing)
    Affected if The endpoint responds without requiring authentication or authorization checks
  5. Confirm file reading capability
    If testing is permitted, send a request to the eID endpoint with a local file path such as file:///etc/passwd or ../ to observe if file contents are returned
    Affected if The response contains contents of local files or the server returns file data from arbitrary paths

If the Kitodo.Presentation extension is installed and its version falls within the affected ranges, and the eID script is accessible without authentication, the environment is vulnerable to SSRF.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2.3.2 / 3.2.3 / 3.3.4 or later
Fixed in 2.3.23.2.33.3.4
Interim mitigation

Upgrade the Kitodo.Presentation extension to version 2.3.2, 3.2.3, 3.3.4 or later, which contains the access check fix. If immediate patching is not possible, disable or restrict access to the vulnerable eID script via TYPO3 configuration or web server rules.

Recommended fix High confidence

Upgrade to 2.3.2+ (for 2.x) or 3.2.3+ (for 3.0-3.2.x) or 3.3.4+ (for 3.3.x)

  1. 1. Identify the current installed version of Kitodo.presentation extension in your TYPO3 instance
  2. 2. If using TYPO3 2.x (version < 2.3.2): Plan upgrade to version 2.3.2 or later
  3. 3. If using TYPO3 3.0.0 - 3.2.x: Plan upgrade to version 3.2.3 or later
  4. 4. If using TYPO3 3.3.0 - 3.3.x: Plan upgrade to version 3.3.4 or later
  5. 5. Create a complete backup of the TYPO3 database and files before updating
  6. 6. Update the Kitodo.presentation extension via TYPO3 Extension Manager or Composer (composer update kitodo/presentation)
  7. 7. Clear all TYPO3 caches after the update
  8. 8. Verify the new version is installed correctly
