## Summary `objects/notifySubscribers.json.php` takes the raw `message` POST parameter and passes it into `sendSiteEmail()`, which substitutes it directly into an HTML email template (via `str_replace` on the `{message}` placeholder) and renders it with `PHPMailer::msgHTML()`. There is no HTML sanitization, character escaping, or output encoding on the attacker-controlled `message` between `$_POST['message']` and the rendered email. Any authenticated user with upload permission can therefore broadcast arbitrary HTML — phishing links, tracking pixels, CSS/UI spoofing — to every subscriber on their channel (up to 10,000 recipients per invocation). The email is sent From: the platform's configured contact address and wrapped in the site's official logo and title, so attacker-supplied HTML arrives with the appearance of an official platform communication. ## Details **File:** `objects/notifySubscribers.json.php` ```php 10: if (!User::canUpload()) { 11: forbiddenPage('You can not notify'); 12: } 13: forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest('notifySubscribers'); 14: $user_id = User::getId(); 15: // if admin bring all subscribers 16: if (User::isAdmin()) { 17: $user_id = ''; 18: } 19: 20: r
03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. FIRST EPSS
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
