GHSA-7w4p-72j7-v7c2 Phar object injection in PHPMailer

• Packagist phpmailer/phpmailer: >= 5.0.0, < 5.2.27 → fixed in 5.2.27 • Packagist phpmailer/phpmailer: >= 6.0.0, < 6.0.6 → fixed in 6.0.6

PHPMailer versions prior to 6.0.6 and 5.2.27 are vulnerable to an object injection attack by passing phar:// paths into `addAttachment()` and other functions that may receive unfiltered local paths, possibly leading to RCE. See this article for more info on this type of vulnerability. Mitigated by blocking the use of paths containing URL-protocol style prefixes such as `phar://`. Reported by Sehun Oh of cyberone.kr. Impact Object injection, possible remote code execution Patches Fixed in 6.0.6 and 5.2.27 Workarounds Validate and sanitise user input before using.
