Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform server-side request forgery and send emails to attacker-specified destinations.
The vulnerability exists due to missing authentication for critical function in public/main/inc/ajax/install.ajax.php test_mailer action when processing a user-supplied Symfony Mailer DSN from POST data. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to perform server-side request forgery and send emails to attacker-specified destinations.
The affected endpoint remains accessible on fully installed instances because it does not include the authentication and installation-completed checks performed by global.inc.php.
