Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-287: Improper Authentication, where when an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct. In Fixpunkt/fp newsletter, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

The CAPTCHA of the extension can be bypassed which may result in automated creation of various newsletter subscribers. It is possible to provide arbitrary subscription UIDs to the `deleteAction` of the extension resulting in all newsletter subscribers to be unsubscribed. Insufficient access checks in the `createAction` and `unsubscribeAction` can be used to obtain data of existing newsletter subscribers.
