TYPO3-20051114-1: TYPO3 Security Bulletin

The file editor functionality in the TYPO3 Install Tool (menu option "Edit files in typo3conf/") has an option that reads "Make backup copy". If set, this will create a backup copy and append a "~" to the original file name. This leads to file names that may be delivered as text files by a web server. Thus, sensitive information (e.g. the content of localconf.php) may be disclosed.

TYPO3-20051107-1: chc_forum

A bug has been discovered in the "CHC Forum" (chc_forum) extension where some Javascript expressions are not properly caught when entered in forms. Thus, specially crafted entries may be used to inject malicious code.

TYPO3-20051010-10: TYPO3 Security Bulletin

A bug has been discovered in the "Front End News Submitter" (fe_news) where SQL injection is not safely prevented and thus malicious SQL commands are potentially possible. Since the RTE enabled version (fe_rtenews) is derived from fe_news, it is affected as well.
