Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability centers around improper handling of insert tags that could reference PHP files. Contao's architecture processes insert tags through dedicated controllers and parsers. The CWE-94 classification indicates code injection via controlled input, which would occur in the insert tag processing pipeline. While exact pre-patch code isn't available, Contao's security advisory and PHP file inclusion context strongly implicate the core insert tag handling components. The fixed versions (4.4.56 etc.) would have added validation/restrictions in these areas.
