Etherpad is a real-time collaborative editor.

An Argument Injection issue in the plugin management of Etherpad 1.8.13 allows privileged users to execute arbitrary code on the server by installing plugins from an attacker-controlled source.

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.

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 < 1.8.3 is affected by a denial of service in the import functionality.

Etherpad <1.8.3 stored passwords used by users insecurely in the database and in log files.

Etherpad < 1.8.3 is affected by a missing lock check which could cause a denial of service.

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 ..

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 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.4 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server.

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

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.

node/hooks/express/apicalls.js in Etherpad Lite before v1.6.3 mishandles JSONP, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.

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.

Directory traversal vulnerability in node/utils/Minify.js in Etherpad 1.1.1 through 1.5.2 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by leveraging replacement of backslashes with slashes in the path parameter of HTT…
