Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Winter CMS (Packagist package wintercms/winter) versions up to and including 1.2.3 are affected by a server-side template injection flaw. A remote attacker can submit a crafted payload through the CMS Pages field and Plugin components, which the source says allows arbitrary code execution. No fixed version is listed in the source, so no upgrade target is available from this record.
