Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LimeSurvey versions 3.19.1 and earlier
Description A cross-site scripting issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the tolang parameter in the "admin/translate/translateheader view.php" file. This can be demonstrated by accessing the "/index.php/admin/translate/sa/index/surveyid/336819/lang/" API endpoint.
Recommendations For LimeSurvey versions 3.19.1 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "admin/translate/translateheader view.php" file and avoiding the use of the tolang parameter in the affected API endpoint until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
