Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor. In versions prior to 1.8.16, an attacker can craft an `*.etherpad` file that, when imported, might allow the attacker to gain admin privileges for the Etherpad instance. This, in turn, can be used to install a malicious Etherpad…

Ether MP3 CD Burner 1.3.8 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the registration name field that allows remote code execution. Attackers can craft a malicious payload to overwrite SEH handlers and execute a bind shell on port 3110 by exploiting improper input validation.

Etherpad 1.6.3 before 1.6.4 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor. From 2.1.0 until 3.1.0, Etherpad's src/node/handler/APIHandler.ts authorizes requests to /api/2/* in the authorization_code OAuth path by using requiredClaims with the admin claim. This check requires only that the claim exists,…

Etherpad 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.4 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server. The instance has to be configured to use a document database (DirtyDB, CouchDB, MongoDB, or RethinkDB).

Etherpad < 1.8.3 is affected by a denial of service in the import functionality. Upload of binary file to the import endpoint would crash the instance.

In Etherpad < 1.8.3, a specially crafted URI would raise an unhandled exception in the cache mechanism and cause a denial of service (crash the instance).

Etherpad 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.4 allows an attacker to export all the existing pads of an instance without knowledge of pad names.

Directory traversal vulnerability in node/utils/Minify.js in Etherpad 1.1.2 through 1.5.4 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files with permissions of the user running the service via a .. (dot dot) in the path parameter of HTTP API requests. NOTE: This vulnerability is…

node/utils/ExportEtherpad.js in Etherpad 1.5.x before 1.5.2 might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by leveraging an improper substring check when exporting a padID.

Directory traversal vulnerability in node/hooks/express/tests.js in Etherpad frontend tests before 1.6.1.

Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor. From 2.6.0 until 3.1.0, Etherpad's src/node/hooks/express/tokenTransfer.ts uses POST /tokenTransfer to store an author token for transfer between browsers and exposes it through GET /tokenTransfer/{uuid}. Although the record includes…

FCGI versions 0.44 through 0.82, for Perl, include a vulnerable version of the FastCGI fcgi2 (aka fcgi) library. The included FastCGI library is affected by CVE-2025-23016, causing an integer overflow (and resultant heap-based buffer overflow) via crafted nameLen or valueLen…

templates/pad.html in Etherpad-Lite 1.7.5 has XSS when the browser does not encode the path of the URL, as demonstrated by Internet Explorer.

Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor. Prior to 3.3.0, getHTMLFromAtext in src/node/utils/ExportHtml.ts interpolates values from the exportHtmlAdditionalTagsWithData plugin hook into span data attributes without HTML attribute escaping. A pad editor can place an…

Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor. Prior to 3.1.0, src/node/handler/ImportHandler.ts and src/node/handler/ExportHandler.ts derive temporary filenames from Math.random() and place them in os.tmpdir(). On a host with a shared world-writable temporary directory, a local…

Etherpad Lite before 1.6.4 is exploitable for admin access.

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the chat component of Etherpad 1.8.13 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript or HTML by importing a crafted pad.

Etherpad < 1.8.3 is affected by a missing lock check which could cause a denial of service. Aggressively targeting random pad import endpoints with empty data would flatten all pads due to lack of rate limiting and missing ownership check.
