"details" : "### Problem\nBackend users with access to the redirects module and write permission on the `sys_redirect` table were able to read, create, and modify any redirect record - without restriction to the user’s own file‑mounts or web‑mounts. This allowed attackers to insert or alter redirects pointing to arbitrary URLs - facilitating phishing or other malicious redirect attacks.\n\n### Solution\nUpdate to TYPO3 versions 10.4.55 ELTS, 11.5.49 ELTS, 12.4.41 LTS, 13.4.23 LTS, 14.0.2 that fix the problem described.\n\n### Credits\nThanks to Georg Dümmler for reporting this issue, and to TYPO3 security team member Elias Häußler for fixing it.\n\n### References\n* [TYPO3-CORE-SA-2026-002](https://typo3.org/security/advisory/typo3-core-sa-2026-002)",
