Machine-written summary

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

The TYPO3 "Content Element Selector" extension (Packagist mmc/ceselector) is vulnerable in versions before 3.0.3, from 4.0.0 before 4.0.2, from 5.0.0 before 5.0.1, and from 6.0.0 before 6.0.1. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send a crafted cookie that the extension passes to PHP's unserialize() without safe handling, enabling PHP object injection and possible remote code execution on the TYPO3 server, but only when the content element is configured with Persistent Mode set to Static. Upgrade to version 3.0.3, 4.0.2, 5.0.1, or 6.0.1, matching your release line.
