CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-284  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade ezsystems/ez-support-tools to version 2.2.3 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Access Control. A user having insufficient permissions is able to access the system information tabs if they type in the direct link (the link is not shown in the menu). The "Setup / System info" policy should be required to access it, but only backend login is actually required. This means any editor can see core system information, including the output from phpinfo(). The fix ensures that the access policy is correctly verified.
