Email marketing and newsletter platform for WordPress and Joomla

AcyMailing 11.1.2 closes holes that let strangers read or unsubscribe any subscriber.

◆Current state
AcyMailing is a Joomla and WordPress email marketing extension. Release 11.1.2 is a security update: it fixes an unauthenticated leak of subscriber data including the subscriber key, anonymous unsubscribing of any known address, logged-in users changing other people's subscriptions, unchecked post-subscription redirects and campaign archive pages opening without permission. It follows 11.1's privacy work, a per-subscriber tracking switch and fixed one-click unsubscribe.
◆Where it's heading
Since the 11.0 security rework in July, AcyMailing's releases alternate between privacy features and fixes for flaws in how subscriber actions are authorized. 11.1.2 shows the 11.0 rework left gaps in the subscription paths, now patched with ownership checks and security tokens.
◆Prediction
A security advisory with full details is promised once users have had time to update, and further 11.1.x patches are likely as those details invite scrutiny of related code paths.

    AcyMailing 11.1.2 fixes subscriber data leak and forced unsubscribes

    Three high-severity fixes stop anonymous visitors from reading subscriber data or unsubscribing anyone whose address they know, and stop logged-in users from changing other people's subscriptions. Redirects now need an approved host. It patches the subscription paths the 11.0 security rework did not fully cover; site owners should update now.
