Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability (CVE-2015-1566) is a stored XSS in DNN <7.4.0. Security bulletins indicate the core issue was improper neutralization during HTML generation. Analysis focused on:
- Output rendering functions in high-risk modules like HTML/Text
- Core HTML utilities handling user content
- Security bulletin references to legacy code fixes in 7.4.0 While exact patch details are unavailable, the HTML module's rendering logic and core HTML utilities are prime candidates for unencoded output based on the XSS nature and affected component (DotNetNuke.Core). Confidence is medium due to reliance on advisory descriptions rather than direct code diffs.
