Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ enables unauthenticated 2FA brute-force attack via /admin/check acceptance of arbitrary user-id
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-9pq7-mfwh-xx2j. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts vulnerability in the /admin/check endpoint, which accepts arbitrary user-id parameters without session binding or rate limiting. Unauthenticated attackers can brute-force any user's six-digit TOTP code by submitting POST requests with sequential token values, bypassing two-factor authentication to gain full administrative access.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ has unauthenticated FAQ permission bypass via getFaqBySolutionId fallback query
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-289f-fq7w-6q2w. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the getIdFromSolutionId() method that lacks permission filtering, allowing unauthenticated attackers to enumerate restricted FAQ entries and read their titles via the /solution_id_{id}.html endpoint. Attackers can sequentially iterate solution IDs to discover all FAQs including those restricted to specific users or groups, leaking sensitive metadata through redirect Location headers and page canonical links.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: SVG Sanitizer Entity Decoding Depth Limit Bypass Leading to Stored XSS
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-whqh-9pq5-c7r3. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in SvgSanitizer::decodeAllEntities() that limits recursive entity decoding to 5 iterations, allowing attackers to bypass sanitization. Authenticated users with FAQ_EDIT permission can upload malicious SVG files with deeply nested ampersand encoding around numeric HTML entities to reconstruct javascript: URLs, which execute arbitrary JavaScript when clicked by other users viewing the uploaded SVG.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: Ordinary Authenticated User Can Access Admin-Only API Endpoints Due to Insufficient Authorization Check
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-jrc5-w569-h7h5. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an insufficient authorization vulnerability in admin-api routes that allows authenticated ordinary users to access administrative endpoints by only checking login status instead of verifying backend privileges. Attackers with valid frontend user accounts can access sensitive backend operational information including dashboard versions, LDAP configuration, Elasticsearch statistics, and health-check data.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: Stored XSS via Utils::parseUrl() in comment rendering
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-9525-27vj-c8r8. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in Utils::parseUrl() that allows authenticated users to inject JavaScript via malformed URLs in comments. Attackers can craft URLs with unescaped quotes to inject event handlers, stealing admin session cookies and achieving full application takeover when visitors view affected FAQ pages.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ has an Authorization Bypass in All Admin Pages Due to Non-Terminating Permission Check
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-hpgw-ww76-c68r. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in AbstractAdministrationController::userHasPermission() that fails to terminate execution after sending a forbidden response. Attackers can access all permission-protected admin pages by requesting their URLs as authenticated users, exposing admin logs, user data, system information, and application configuration.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: Missing Authorization on Tag Deletion Allows Any Authenticated User to Delete Tags
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-7cx3-2qx2-3g6w. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the DELETE /admin/api/content/tags/{tagId} endpoint that allows any authenticated user to delete tags. Any logged-in user, including regular frontend users, can delete arbitrary tags by sending a DELETE request with a valid session cookie, resulting in permanent data loss and disruption of FAQ organization.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ has unauthenticated SQL injection via User-Agent header in BuiltinCaptcha
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-289f-fq7w-6q2w. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in BuiltinCaptcha::garbageCollector() and BuiltinCaptcha::saveCaptcha() methods that interpolate unsanitized User-Agent headers into DELETE and INSERT queries. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit the public GET /api/captcha endpoint by crafting malicious User-Agent headers to perform time-based blind SQL injection, extracting sensitive data including user credentials, admin tokens, and SMTP credentials from the database.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ has SQL Injection in CurrentUser::setTokenData through unescaped OAuth token fields
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-pm8c-3qq3-72w7. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a sql injection vulnerability in CurrentUser::setTokenData that allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL by injecting malicious OAuth token claims. Attackers with Azure AD accounts containing SQL metacharacters in display names or JWT claims can break out of string literals and execute arbitrary database queries.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: Path traversal in Client::deleteClientFolder enables arbitrary directory deletion by non-super-admin admins
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-gh9p-q46p-57g2. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability in Client::deleteClientFolder that allows admins with INSTANCE_DELETE permission to delete arbitrary directories. Attackers can submit traversal sequences like https://../../../<path> in the client URL parameter to recursively delete directories outside the intended clientFolder scope.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ: Stored XSS in FAQ Question/Answer via Encode-Decode Bypass of removeAttributes() Sanitization
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-f5p7-2c9q-8896. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in FAQ creation and update endpoints that bypass sanitization through encode-decode cycles. The vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with FAQ_ADD permission to inject malicious script tags via question or answer parameters, which execute in every visitor's browser when FAQ content is rendered with the raw Twig filter.

Duplicate Advisory: phpMyFAQ has stored XSS via | raw Filter in search.twig — html_entity_decode(strip_tags()) Bypass in Search Result Rendering
### Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-pqh6-8fxf-jx22. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

### Original Description
phpMyFAQ before 4.1.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in search.twig where result.question and result.answerPreview are rendered with the raw filter, disabling autoescape protection. Attackers with FAQ editor privileges can inject HTML-entity-encoded payloads that bypass html_entity_decode(strip_tags()) processing in SearchController.php, executing arbitrary JavaScript in every visitor's browser context including administrators.
