GHSA-gfhq-7499-f3f2
TSPortal: Any user can forge self-deletion requests for any account
Quick fix
GHSA-gfhq-7499-f3f2 — miraheze/ts-portal: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
composer require miraheze/ts-portal:^30Details
### Summary Conversion of empty strings to null allows disguising DPA reports as genuine self-deletion reports.
### Details Creating a DPA report about another user and leaving the evidence field empty causes that report to look like the reported user self-requested deletion of their data. Ingenuine report is not distinguishable from a genuine one.
This can be prevented by disabling [convertEmptyStringsToNull](https://api.laravel.com/docs/12.x/Illuminate/Foundation/Configuration/Middleware.html#method_convertEmptyStringsToNull) in the middleware, or by validating `evidence` in Http/Controllers/DPAController::store() to not be empty.
### PoC New DPA report -> Select "...someone who I suspect is under the age of 13" for the "The above username is..." field -> Add nothing to the "Evidence" field -> Submit
### Impact Potential unauthorized deletion of any arbitrary user's data both in the current system (TSPortal) and subsequent systems if actioned.
