What is CVE-2023-40183?

DataEase, an open-source data visualization and analysis tool, harbors a vulnerability that could allow attackers to capture user cookies. This issue arises from the application only utilizing the ImageIO.read() method to verify file types, lacking sufficient whitelisting for file suffixes. Consequently, an attacker can embed malicious code within an image file by altering its extension to HTML. Once uploaded, the attacker can access links and potentially steal sensitive user cookies. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.18.11, and no workarounds are available.
