Phpmyadmin · Phpmynewsletter · CVE-2007-2372
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
phpMyNewsletter versions 0.8 beta5 and earlier
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to compose and send an e-mail message by exploiting a flaw in the admin/send mod.php file. This is possible when administrative credentials are missing, and the script prints a Location header but does not exit. Attackers can send a post request with the `subject`, `message`, `format`, and `list id` fields to compose the message, and then send it via a direct request for the `MsgId` value under the admin directory, specifically the "/admin/" endpoint.
**Recommendations**
For phpMyNewsletter versions 0.8 beta5 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the admin/send mod.php file until a patch is available. Additionally, restrict the use of the `subject`, `message`, `format`, and `list id` fields in the affected endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
