Description

Pimcore is an open source data & experience management platform. Prior to version 10.1.2, text-values were not properly escaped before printed in the version preview. This allowed XSS by authenticated users with access to the resources. This issue is patched in Pimcore version 10.1.2.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for pimcore/pimcore, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update pimcore/pimcore to 10.1.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2021-39166 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
