Technical Analysis

The vulnerability in YesWiki before version 4.6.7 is an authentication bypass in the contact mail AJAX handler. Attackers can send POST XMLHttpRequests to the mail handler endpoint without providing the expected field or type parameters, enabling them to specify arbitrary recipient, sender, subject, and body fields. This allows unauthenticated users to relay emails through the wiki's SMTP server, which can be abused for spam or phishing campaigns. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5, indicating a medium severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and impacts on integrity and availability.

Potential Impact

Unauthenticated attackers can send arbitrary emails through the YesWiki SMTP server, potentially enabling spam or phishing attacks. The vulnerability does not impact confidentiality but affects integrity and availability of the mail service. This could lead to reputational damage and abuse of the mail infrastructure.

Mitigation Recommendations

A fix is available in YesWiki version 4.6.7. Users should upgrade to version 4.6.7 or later to remediate this authentication bypass vulnerability. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is provided in the available data.
