CVE-2018-6182
Estado: ModificadaMedia (6.1)—
Mahara 16.10 before 16.10.9 and 17.04 before 17.04.7 and 17.10 before 17.10.4 are vulnerable to bad input when TinyMCE is bypassed by POST packages. Therefore, Mahara should not rely on TinyMCE's code stripping alone but also clean input on the server / PHP side as one can create own packets of POST data containing bad content with which to hit the server.

Por lo tanto, Mahara no debería depender solamente de la eliminación de código de TinyMCE, sino también de las entradas limpias del lado del servidor/PHP, ya que se pueden crear paquetes propios de datos POST que contienen malos contenidos con los que alcanzar el servidor."
