Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

SVG files are in the allowed_extensions whitelist and can be uploaded by any admin user via the media manager. There is zero SVG content sanitization anywhere in the upload pipeline. A malicious SVG with JavaScript (onload, <script>, <foreignObject>) executes in the context of the Shopware domain when accessed.

The Problem

In src/Core/Framework/Resources/config/packages/shopware.yaml, line 194:

allowed_extensions: ["jpg", "jpeg", "png", "webp", "avif", "gif", "svg", ...]

SVG is whitelisted. The upload path (MediaUploadController → FileSaver → TypeDetector) recognizes SVG as ImageType with VECTOR_GRAPHIC flag, but no code strips JavaScript, event handlers, or external entity references from the SVG XML.

A search of the entire codebase for SVG sanitization returns — no DOMPurify, no svg-sanitize, no strip_tags on SVG content, nothing.

Impact

Stored XSS affecting all users who view the uploaded SVG. In an e-commerce context, this can lead to admin account takeover, customer data theft, or malicious plugin installation.

Suggested Fix

Either:

  1. Remove SVG from allowed_extensions if SVG upload is not a core requirement
  2. Sanitize SVG content on upload using a library like enshrined/svg-sanitize (strips scripts, event handlers, external references)
  3. Serve SVGs with Content-Disposition: attachment to prevent inline rendering
  4. Serve SVGs from a separate domain (like Nextcloud's usercontent.apps.nextcloud.com)

Option 2 is the most practical — enshrined/svg-sanitize is already used by WordPress and other PHP projects.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update shopware/core to 6.7.10.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-xvhc-gm7j-mhmc 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.
