YAF.NET: Pre-Handler Authorization Bypass on Admin Pages Enabling Blind SQL Execution via `/Admin/RunSql`

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 04.05.2026 Published: 12.05.2026 Updated: 12.05.2026

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.
