Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHPFox versions 3.7.3 through 3.7.5

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended "Only Me" restrictions and comment on a private publication. This is achieved by sending a request with a modified val[item id] parameter for the publication, specifically targeting the static/ajax.php file.

Recommendations For PHPFox versions 3.7.3 through 3.7.5, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the static/ajax.php file until a patch is available. Avoid using the val[item id] parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
