> ### Meta > * CVSS: `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:F/RL:O/RC:C` (8.2) Problem It has been discovered that the new TYPO3 v11 feature that allows users to create and share deep links in the backend user interface is vulnerable to cross-site-request-forgery. The impact is the same as described in TYPO3-CORE-SA-2020-006 (CVE-2020-11069). However, it is not limited to the same site context and does not require the attacker to be authenticated. In a worst case scenario, the attacker could create a new admin user account to compromise the system. To successfully carry out an attack, an attacker must trick his victim to access a compromised system. The victim must have an active session in the TYPO3 backend at that time. The following Same-Site cookie settings in _$GLOBALS[TYPO3_CONF_VARS][BE][cookieSameSite]_ are required for an attack to be successful: • _SameSite=_*strict*: malicious evil.example.org invoking TYPO3 application at good.example.org • _SameSite=_*lax* or *none*: malicious evil.com invoking TYPO3 application at example.org Solution Update your instance to TYPO3 version 11.5.0 which addresses the problem described.
