Machine-written summary

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

October CMS versions below 3.7.14 and from 4.0.0 up to (not including) 4.1.10 are affected. An attacker needs a backend account with Developer permissions and cms.safe_mode enabled; they can then use Twig template markup to insert, update, or delete rows in any database table. Upgrade to 3.7.14 or 4.1.10. If upgrading is not possible, limit Developer tool access to fully trusted administrators.
