Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (georgringer/news 14.0.3, 13.0.2, 12.3.2, 11.4.4, 10.0.4), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

The extension fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in a database query. As a result, an unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary SQL through a URL parameter on pages using the "Date Menu of news articles" plugin. Exploitation requires the "Date Menu of news articles" plugin to be in use and the TypoScript/Plugin setting disableOverrideDemand not to be enabled.

IDs: CVE-2026-8726, GHSA-g868-j3qm-4j28
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-8726 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:48 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 8.2)

Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: georgringer/news 14.0.3, 13.0.2, 12.3.2, 11.4.4, 10.0.4. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Packagist georgringer/news: affected >= 12.0.0, < 12.3.2; >= 13.0.0, < 13.0.2; >= 14.0.0, < 14.0.3; < 10.0.4; >= 11.0.0, < 11.4.4; fixed in 10.0.4, 13.0.2, 14.0.3, 11.4.4, 12.3.2

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist georgringer/news: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on georgringer/news.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
