Machine-written summary

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

Craft CMS versions before 4.15.3 and from 5.0.0-alpha.1 before 5.7.5 are affected. An unauthenticated attacker can make the site store arbitrary content, such as PHP code, in a session file on the server through the return URL parameter on login redirects, and the source says this content could be executed if combined with another vulnerability. Upgrade craftcms/cms to 4.15.3 or 5.7.5.
