Vulnerability to Server-Side Template Injection on Mail templates for Apache Syncope 2.0.X releases prior to 2.0.15, 2.1.X releases prior to 2.1.6, enabling attackers to inject arbitrary JEXL expressions, leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE) was discovered.

It was found that the Apache Syncope EndUser UI login page prio to 2.0.15 and 2.1.6 reflects the successMessage parameters. By this mean, a user accessing the Enduser UI could execute javascript code from URL query string.

An administrator with workflow definition entitlements can use DTD to perform malicious operations, including but not limited to file read, file write, and code execution.

A malicious user with enough administration entitlements can inject html-like elements containing JavaScript statements into Connector names, Report names, AnyTypeClass keys and Policy descriptions. When another user with enough administration entitlements edits one of the Entities above via Admin Console, the injected JavaScript code is executed.

An administrator with user search entitlements in Apache Syncope 1.2.x before 1.2.11, 2.0.x before 2.0.8, and unsupported releases 1.0.x and 1.1.x which may be also affected, can recover sensitive security values using the fiql and orderby parameters.

An administrator with report and template entitlements in Apache Syncope 1.2.x before 1.2.11, 2.0.x before 2.0.8, and unsupported releases 1.0.x and 1.1.x which may be also affected, can use XSL Transformations (XSLT) to perform malicious operations, including but not limited to file read, file write, and code execution.
