Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key

CVE-2024-45232

Severity Medium
Score 5.3/10

Summary

An issue was discovered in the powermail extension for TYPO3. It fails to validate the mail parameter of the "confirmationAction", resulting in Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR). An unauthenticated attacker can use this to display the user-submitted data of all forms persisted by the extension. This can only be exploited when the extension is configured to save submitted form data to the database "(plugin.tx_powermail.settings.db.enable=1)", which however is the default setting of the extension. This issue affects versions through 7.4.4, 8.0.0 through 8.4.2, 9.0.0 through 10.8.2, and 11.0.0 through 12.3.5.
