These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for spip, sorted by severity first and recency.
SPIP versions prior to 4.4.10 contain a SQL injection vulnerability that allows authenticated low-privilege users to execute arbitrary SQL queries by manipulating union-based injection techniques. Attackers can exploit this SQL injection flaw combined with PHP tag processing to achieve remote code execution on the server.
SPIP versions prior to 4.4.10 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability caused by PHP type juggling that allows unauthenticated attackers to access protected information. Attackers can exploit loose type comparisons in authentication logic to bypass login verification and retrieve sensitive internal data.
The SPIP referer_spam plugin versions prior to 1.3.0 contain an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the referer_spam_ajouter and referer_spam_supprimer action handlers. The handlers read the url parameter from a GET request and interpolate it directly into SQL LIKE clauses without input validation or parameterization. The endpoints do not enforce authorization checks and do not use SPIP action protections such as securiser_action(), allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries.
SPIP before 4.4.9 allows Insecure Deserialization in the public area through the table_valeur filter and the DATA iterator, which accept serialized data. An attacker who can place malicious serialized content (a pre-condition requiring prior access or another vulnerability) can trigger arbitrary object instantiation and potentially achieve code execution. The use of serialized data in these components has been deprecated and will be removed in SPIP 5. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.4.9 allows Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the private area, complementing an incomplete fix from SPIP 4.4.8. The echappe_anti_xss() function was not systematically applied to input, form, button, and anchor (a) HTML tags, allowing an attacker to inject malicious scripts through these elements. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.4.9 allows Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via syndicated sites in the private area. The #URL_SYNDIC output is not properly sanitized on the private syndicated site page, allowing an attacker who can set a malicious syndication URL to inject persistent scripts that execute when other administrators view the syndicated site details.
SPIP before 4.4.9 allows Blind Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via syndicated sites in the private area. When editing a syndicated site, the application does not verify that the syndication URL is a valid remote URL, allowing an authenticated attacker to make the server issue requests to arbitrary internal or external destinations. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.4.8 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the public area triggered in certain edge-case usage patterns. The echapper_html_suspect() function does not adequately sanitize user-controlled content, allowing authenticated users with content-editing privileges (e.g., author-level roles and above) to inject malicious scripts. The injected payload may be rendered across multiple pages within the framework and execute in the browser context of other users, including administrators. Successful exploitation can allow attackers to perform actions in the security context of the victim user, including unauthorized modification of application state. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.4.8 allows cross-site scripting (XSS) in the private area via malicious iframe tags. The application does not properly sandbox or escape iframe content in the back-office, allowing an attacker to inject and execute malicious scripts. The fix adds a sandbox attribute to iframe tags in the private area. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.4.5 and 4.3.9 allows an Open Redirect via the login form when used in AJAX mode. An attacker can craft a malicious URL that, when visited by a victim, redirects them to an arbitrary external site after login. This vulnerability only affects sites where the login page has been overridden to function in AJAX mode. It is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
The 'Saisies pour formulaire' (Saisies) plugin for SPIP versions 5.4.0 through 5.11.0 contains a critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the server. Users should immediately update to version 5.11.1 or later.
SPIP before 4.3.6, 4.2.17, and 4.1.20 allows unauthorized content disclosure in the private area. The application does not properly check authorization when displaying content of articles and sections (rubriques) in AJAX-loaded fragments, allowing an authenticated attacker to access restricted content. This vulnerability is not mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.3.6, 4.2.17, and 4.1.20 allows Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the private area. The content of the error message displayed by the 'transmettre' API is not properly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious scripts. This vulnerability is mitigated by the SPIP security screen.
SPIP before 4.2.15 allows Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via crafted content in HTML code tags. The application does not properly verify JavaScript within code tags, allowing an attacker to inject malicious scripts that execute in a victim's browser.
Spip 4.1.10 contains a file upload vulnerability that allows attackers to upload malicious SVG files with embedded external links. Attackers can trick administrators into clicking a crafted SVG logo that redirects to a potentially dangerous URL through improper file upload filtering.

SPIP 4.0.0 is affected by a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in ecrire/public/aiguiller.php, ecrire/public/balises.php, ecrire/balise/formulaire_.php. To exploit the vulnerability, a visitor must visit a malicious website which redirects to the SPIP website. It is also possible to combine XSS vulnerabilities in SPIP 4.0.0 to exploit it. The vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to execute malicious code without the knowledge of the user on the website (CSRF).
SPIP 4.0.0 is affected by a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ecrire/public/interfaces.php, adding the function safehtml to the vulnerable fields. An editor is able to modify his personal information. If the editor has an article written and available, when a user goes to the public site and wants to read the author's information, the malicious code will be executed. The "Who are you" and "Website Name" fields are vulnerable.
SPIP 4.0.0 is affected by a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. To exploit the vulnerability, a visitor must browse to a malicious SVG file. The vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to inject malicious code running on the client side into web pages visited by other users (stored XSS).
