GHSA-xrvh-rvc4-5m43: Kirby vulnerable to unrestricted file upload of user avatar images

### TL;DR This vulnerability affects all Kirby sites that might have potential attackers in the group of authenticated Panel users. The attack requires user interaction by another user or visitor and *cannot* be automated. ---- ### Introduction Unrestricted upload of files with a dangerous type is a type of vulnerability that allows to circumvent expectations and protections in the server setup or backend code. Uploaded files are not checked for their compliance with the intended purpose of the upload target, which can introduce secondary attack vectors. While the vulnerability described here does *not* allow critical attacks like remote code execution (RCE), it can still be abused to upload unexpected file types that could for example make it possible to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. ### Impact Users with Panel access can upload a user avatar in their own account view. This avatar is intended to be an image, however the file type or file extension was not validat...

GHSA-97m3-52wr-xvv2: Dompdf's usage of vulnerable version of phenx/php-svg-lib leads to restriction bypass and potential RCE

### Summary A lack of sanitization/check in the font path returned by php-svg-lib, in the case of a inline CSS font defined, that will be used by Cpdf to open a font will be passed to a `file_exists` call, which is sufficient to trigger metadata unserializing on a PHAR file, through the phar:// URL handler on PHP < 8.0. On other versions, it might be used as a way to get a SSRF through, for example, ftp, not restricted by authorized protocols configured on dompdf. ### Details The problem lies on the `openFont` function of the `lib/Cpdf.php` library, when the `$font` variable passed by php-svg-lib isn't checked correctly. A path is crafted through $name and $dir, which are two values that can be controlled through CSS : ``` $name = basename($font); $dir = dirname($font); [...] $metrics_name = "$name.ufm"; [...] if (!isset($this->fonts[$font]) && file_exists("$dir/$metrics_name")) { ``` Passing a font named `phar:///foo/bar/baz.phar/test` will set the value of $name to `test` and $d...

GHSA-f3qr-qr4x-j273: php-svg-lib lacks path validation on font through SVG inline styles

### Summary php-svg-lib fails to validate that font-family doesn't contain a PHAR url, which might leads to RCE on PHP < 8.0, and doesn't validate if external references are allowed. This might leads to bypass of restrictions or RCE on projects that are using it, if they do not strictly revalidate the fontName that is passed by php-svg-lib. ### Details The Style::fromAttributes(), or the Style::parseCssStyle() should check the content of the `font-family` and prevents it to use a PHAR url, to avoid passing an invalid and dangerous `fontName` value to other libraries. The same check as done in the Style::fromStyleSheets might be reused : ``` if ( \array_key_exists("font-family", $styles) && ( \strtolower(\substr($this->href, 0, 7)) === "phar://" || ($this->document->allowExternalReferences === false && \strtolower(\substr($this->href, 0, 5)) !== "data:") ) ...
