CVE-2022-46168

Discourse is an option source discussion platform. Prior to version 2.8.14 on the `stable` branch and version 2.9.0.beta15 on the `beta` and `tests-passed` branches, recipients of a group SMTP email could see the email addresses of all other users inside the group SMTP topic. Most of the time this is not an issue as they are likely already familiar with one another's email addresses. This issue is patched in versions 2.8.14 and 2.9.0.beta15. The fix is that someone sending emails out via group SMTP to non-staged users masks those emails with blind carbon copy (BCC). Staged users are ones that have likely only interacted with the group via email, and will likely include other people who were CC'd on the original email to the group. As a workaround, disable group SMTP for any groups that have it enabled.

Summary
  • (es) Discourse es una plataforma de discusión de fuentes de opciones. Antes de la versión 2.8.14 en la rama "estable" y la versión 2.9.0.beta15 en las ramas "beta" y "pruebas aprobadas", los destinatarios de un correo electrónico SMTP grupal podían ver las direcciones de correo electrónico de todos los demás usuarios dentro del grupo. Tema SMTP. La mayoría de las veces esto no es un problema ya que probablemente ya estén familiarizados con las direcciones de correo electrónico de los demás. Este problema se solucionó en las versiones 2.8.14 y 2.9.0.beta15. La solución es que alguien que envía correos electrónicos a través de SMTP grupal a usuarios no preparados enmascara esos correos electrónicos con copia oculta (blind carbon copy, BCC). Los usuarios preparados son aquellos que probablemente solo han interactuado con el grupo a través de correo electrónico y probablemente incluirán a otras personas que recibieron CC en el correo electrónico original del grupo. Como workaround, deshabilite el SMTP de grupo para cualquier grupo que lo tenga habilitado.
