Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue lets an unauthenticated user abuse TikiWiki registration to cause notification spam. It is not described as system takeover or data theft, but it can damage email reputation, annoy users, and create operational noise if an old public TikiWiki install remains exposed. Exposure is most likely on legacy TikiWiki installations older than 1.9.7 where tiki-register.php is reachable and user registration or registration notifications are enabled. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless the site is public and still sends registration email. Prioritize quickly for internet-facing TikiWiki systems because email abuse can affect brand trust and mail deliverability. Mitigation focus: Upgrade TikiWiki to version 1.9.7 or later if still running an older release.; Review vendor changelog and tiki-register.php diff for the exact validation change.; Disable or restrict public registration until the installation is verified fixed..
