Technical details
The vulnerability is a log injection (CWE-117) in the Cron controller's recur() method, where the cron_key parameter from the URL is logged directly without sanitizing CRLF characters. An unauthenticated attacker can inject newline characters to fabricate fake log entries. The fix applies the existing sanitize_for_logging() helper function to neutralize the input before logging.
