BIT-phpmailer-2021-3603 — Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere in PHPMailer/PHPMailer

Affected: Bitnami: phpmailer

PHPMailer 6.4.1 and earlier contain a vulnerability that can result in untrusted code being called (if such code is injected into the host project's scope by other means). If the $patternselect parameter to validateAddress() is set to 'php' (the default, defined by PHPMailer::$validator), and the global namespace contains a function called php, it will be called in preference to the built-in validator of the same name. Mitigated in PHPMailer 6.5.0 by denying the use of simple strings as validator function names.

GHSA-77mr-wc79-m8j3 — PHPMailer untrusted code may be run from an overridden address validator

Affected: Packagist: phpmailer/phpmailer

If a function is defined that has the same name as the default built-in email address validation scheme (`php`), it will be called in default configuration as when no validation scheme is provided, the default scheme's callable `php` was being called. If an attacker is able to inject such a function into the application (a much bigger issue), it will be called whenever an email address is validated, such as when calling `validateAddress()`.

### Impact Low impact – exploitation requires that an attacker can already inject code into an application, but it provides a trigger pathway.

### Patches This is patched in PHPMailer 6.5.0 by denying the use of simple strings as validator function names, which is a very minor BC break.

### Workarounds Inject your own email validator function.
