MediumCVE-2026-851882026-09-13

Advanced Module Manager (advancedmodules) 12.0.0 to below 12.1.0 - Authenticated Information Disclosure via Condition Set Labels

Regular Labs Advanced Module Manager 12.0.0 through 12.0.4 is affected by CVE-2026-85188, fixed in 12.1.0 (released 13 September 2026). CVE-2026-85188 is a shared-code defect: the same Condition Set implementation ships in Advanced Module Manager, Conditional Content, Content Templater and ReReplacer, and Regular Labs fixed all four on 13 September 2026. Condition Set labels could be made to reference unrelated database fields, disclosing data the operator was not entitled to read. Exploitation requires administrator access to create or edit a Condition Set, so this is an authenticated information disclosure rather than a remote one. The same release also adds settings restricting who may save PHP Condition Rules. Update to 12.1.0 or later. The CVE record was published on 14 September 2026 with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 6.9 (Medium), vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N.

Affected versions: ≥ 12.0.0 and < 12.1.0

Full advisory: regularlabs.com

Regular Labs Advanced Module Manager (com_advancedmodules) <= 11.0.1 - Broken Access Control, Stored XSS and GeoIP Rule Bypass

Regular Labs Advanced Module Manager up to and including 11.0.1, via the bundled Conditions component and the shared Regular Labs library. Conditions administration did not consistently enforce tokens and component/mapped-item permissions (CVE-2026-63280); stored condition values could execute HTML/JavaScript in administrator summaries (CVE-2026-63281); IP and GeoIP conditions trusted spoofable forwarded headers, letting a remote client bypass location-based display rules (CVE-2026-63683); and privileged Regular Labs AJAX endpoints did not consistently require valid CSRF tokens or matching permissions (CVE-2026-63265). Fixed in the Regular Labs security release of 22 July 2026 (12.0.0).

Affected versions: ≤ 11.0.1
