Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- YetAnotherForum.NET (YAF.NET) is a C# ASP.NET forum. Prior to 4.0.5, Any admin OnPost… handler executes
its side effects before the ResultFilterAttribute rewrites the response to a 302 to /Info/4. The most
impactful abuse is /Admin/RunSql, whose OnPostRunQuery binds Editor from the POST body and passes it
straight to IDbAccess.RunSql with no caller check, yielding arbitrary SQL execution for any low-privileged
user. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.0.5. (CVE-2026-43937)

Solution

Update the YAFNET.Core library and its related packages to version 4.0.5 or later.
