ProjectSend r1605 contains a CSV injection vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious formulas into user profile names. Attackers can craft payloads like =calc|a!z| in the name field to trigger code execution when administrators export action logs as CSV files.

Weakness

The product saves user-provided information into a Comma-Separated Value (CSV) file, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could be interpreted as a command when the file is opened by a spreadsheet product.
