What is CVE-2020-12736?

CVE-2020-12736 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in n/a, published on 7 Jul 2020. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Code42 environments with on-premises server versions 7.0.4 and earlier allow for possible remote code execution. When an administrator creates a local (non-SSO) user via a Code42-generated email, the administrator has the option to modify content for the email invitation.
