Technical details
The vulnerability exists in the ConfigWriter.php cleanUpString() method, which uses an ungreedy regex that can be bypassed via nested Liquidsoap interpolation syntax (#{#{EXPR}}). The password field was incompletely migrated from the vulnerable cleanUpString() to the safe toRawString() method during a prior patch. An attacker with RemoteRelays permission can inject nested interpolation syntax that bypasses the regex filter and executes arbitrary Liquidsoap code when the config is regenerated.
