AI-suggested

A fixed version 3.1.1 or later addresses this issue by ensuring verifyUser() is called to authenticate requests to the /api/notify endpoint. Users should upgrade to SerpBear 3.1.1 or later to remediate this vulnerability. No other mitigation guidance is provided or necessary.

Description

SerpBear versions prior to 3.1.1 have a missing authentication vulnerability in the pages/api/notify.ts endpoint. This flaw allows remote unauthenticated attackers to send repeated POST requests to /api/notify without verification, potentially exhausting SMTP rate limits, triggering abuse flags from email providers, and flooding notification recipients with emails.
