What is CVE-2024-45612?

Contao CMS, a popular open-source content management system, has a vulnerability that allows untrusted users to inject insert tags into the canonical tag. This unauthorized manipulation can lead to unintended outputs on the frontend of the website, potentially exposing sensitive information or misleading users. To mitigate this risk, it is crucial for users to upgrade to Contao versions 4.13.49, 5.3.15, or 5.4.3. For those unable to perform an immediate update, it is advisable to disable the canonical tags in their root page settings.
