CVE-2023-44381: Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

December 1, 2023 (updated December 6, 2023)

October is a Content Management System (CMS) and web platform to assist with development workflow. An authenticated backend user with the editor.cms_pages, editor.cms_layouts, or editor.cms_partials permissions who would normally not be permitted to provide PHP code to be executed by the CMS due to cms.safe_mode being enabled can craft a special request to include PHP code in the CMS template. This issue has been patched in version 3.4.15.
