Date: 2026-August-26
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 12 ∕ 25
AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2]
Vulnerability: Access bypass

Affected versions: <3.9.0
CVE IDs: CVE-2026-81161
Description: 
The module provides a permission that allows users to configure email
templates containing Twig code. This permission was not marked as restricted.

A site administrator might inadvertently grant this permission to
less-trusted users. This would allow those users to execute Twig within email
templates, and to gain access to functionality and information intended only
for highly trusted administrators.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

 * If you use Content Moderation Notifications, upgrade to version 8.x-3.9
   [3].
 * Review roles to ensure only trusted roles have access to the "administer
   content moderation notifications" permission.
