Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Contao's contao/core-bundle package, versions 5.7.0 up to but not including 5.7.12, has an improper access control flaw in the table access voter that governs backend Data Container table permissions. A low-privileged backend user can, after a table they are allowed to access has been checked in the same request, gain read, create, update and delete access to other tables outside their module permissions, including tables holding member records and newsletter subscriber e-mail addresses. Upgrade contao/core-bundle to 5.7.12 or later, which is the fixed version.
