What is CVE-2020-14044?

A vulnerability in Codiad allows an authenticated user with admin privileges to exploit the plugin installation feature, enabling the server to send requests to any external URL.

It's important to note that Codiad is no longer actively maintained by its core contributors, which may exacerbate the vulnerability's impact.
