Remote Code Execution vulnerability in phplist 3.5.1. The application does not check any file extensions stored in the plugin zip file, Uploading a malicious plugin which contains the php files with extensions like PHP,phtml,php7 will be copied to the plugins directory which would lead to the remote code execution
phpList 3.5.3 allows type juggling for login bypass because == is used instead of === for password hashes, which mishandles hashes that begin with 0e followed by exclusively numerical characters.
phpList 3.5.0 allows type juggling for admin login bypass because == is used instead of === for password hashes, which mishandles hashes that begin with 0e followed by exclusively numerical characters.
phpList 3.6.0 allows CSV injection, related to the email parameter, and /lists/admin/ exports.
A vulnerability was found in PHPList 3.2.6. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component Subscription. The manipulation leads to sql injection.

An issue was discovered in phpList through 3.5.4. An error-based SQL Injection vulnerability exists via the Import Administrators section.
SQL injection vulnerability in admin/index.php in phpList before 2.10.19 allows remote administrators to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the delete parameter to the editattributes page.
SQL injection vulnerability in publichtml/lists/admin in phpList before 2.10.18 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the sortby parameter in a find action.
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/php/connector.php in FCKeditor 2.2, as used in Falt4 CMS, Nuke ET, and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by creating a file with PHP sequences preceded by a ZIP header, uploading this file via a FileUpload action with the application/zip content type, and then accessing this file via a direct request to the file in UserFiles/File/, probably a related issue to CVE-2005-4094. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
phpList 3.5.9 allows SQL injection by admins who provide a crafted fourth line of a file to the "Config - Import Administrators" page.
A vulnerability was found in PHPList 3.2.6. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown function of the file /lists/admin/ of the component Sending Campain. The manipulation leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version 3.3.1 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in phplist 2.10.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the p parameter. NOTE: This issue might overlap CVE-2006-5321.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the subscription page editor (spageedit) in phpList before 3.0.6 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators via a request to admin/.
An issue was discovered in phpList 3.6.12. Due to an access error, it was possible to manipulate and edit data of the system's super admin, allowing one to perform an account takeover of the user with super-admin permission. Specifically, for a request with updatepassword=1, a modified request (manipulating both the ID parameter and the associated username) can bypass the intended email confirmation requirement. For example, the attacker can start from an updatepassword=1 request with their own ID number, and change the ID number to 1 (representing the super admin account) and change the username to admin2. In the first step, the attacker changes the super admin's email address to one under the attacker's control. In the second step, the attacker performs a password reset for the super admin account. The new password allows login as the super admin, i.e., a successful account takeover.
phpList before 3.6.15 is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the /lists/dl.php endpoint. An attacker can inject arbitrary JavaScript code by manipulating the id parameter, which is improperly sanitized.
phpList before 3.6.15 is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to improper input sanitization in lt.php. The vulnerability is exploitable when the application dynamically references internal paths and processes untrusted input without escaping, allowing an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript.
phpList before 3.5.4 allows XSS via /lists/admin/user.php and /lists/admin/users.php.
phpList before 3.5.3 allows XSS, with resultant privilege elevation, via lists/admin/template.php.
A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in PHPList 3.2.6. This affects an unknown part of the file /lists/admin/. The manipulation of the argument page with the input send\'\";><script>alert(8)</script> leads to cross site scripting (Reflected). It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. Upgrading to version 3.3.1 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
