Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.


2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-26525)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitizing in the TeX notation filter. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on sites where pdfTeX is available.


3) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-26526)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.
