ThingsBoard Server-Side Template Injection
Publisher and source text is retained separately from QFinch interpretation.
QFinch assessment
ThingsBoard before 3.5 allows Server-Side Template Injection if users are allowed to modify an email template, because Apache FreeMarker supports `freemarker.template.utility.Execute` for content sent to the `/api/admin/settings` endpoint.
