NewCVE-2026-111907 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq to version 4.1.9 or higher.
Overview
phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq is a FAQ system for PHP and MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) via the POST /admin/api/update-database endpoint, which executes database migrations without validating a CSRF token. The updateDatabase() function omits the Token::verifyToken() call that other update-related endpoints use, so an attacker can lure a logged-in user into submitting a cross-site request that triggers database migrations, potentially impacting database integrity or availability.
Note: This is only exploitable against users who hold the CONFIGURATION_EDIT permission.
