Arbitrary email relay via attacker-controlled confirmation content
Published Nov 27, 2024 · Updated Dec 2, 2024
Input validation failure in SPEmailHandler-PHP before 1.0.0 allows remote attackers to send arbitrary confirmation email content. EmailHandler::handleRequest uses the submitted address as the confirmation recipient and embeds submitted name, address, and message fields in its body. A deployed contact-form endpoint without effective CAPTCHA or CSRF controls lets unauthenticated requests relay spam or phishing content from the server.
