CVE-2026-8726: georgringer/news has SQL Injection in extension "News system" (news)

May 19, 2026 (updated June 8, 2026)

The extension fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in a database query. As a result, an unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary SQL through a URL parameter on pages using the “Date Menu of news articles” plugin. Exploitation requires the “Date Menu of news articles” plugin to be in use and the TypoScript/Plugin setting disableOverrideDemand not to be enabled.
