What it is

🚨 An authenticated user could unwittingly click a specially crafted link, unleashing a malicious template on the server — and just like that, it's game over! 🔥 Think of it like a restaurant where a waiter serves a customer a dish they didn't order. If the dish is tainted, the whole kitchen could end up in chaos, with everyone getting sick from that one wrong order. This vulnerability could lead to remote code execution on the server, allowing an attacker to run arbitrary code, access confidential data, or even take complete control of the web application. In the wrong hands, this could be absolutely devastating — imagine a rogue chef in the kitchen turning the whole restaurant upside down!
