SYSTEM code execution via traversal-assisted file upload
Published Aug 1, 2025 · Updated May 15, 2026
Unrestricted file upload in MiniWeb HTTP Server Build 300 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute code as SYSTEM via HTTP. The upload handler accepts a multipart filename containing traversal sequences and writes attacker-supplied EXE and MOF files into Windows system directories. Exploitation requires a pre-Vista Windows host with WMI able to process the planted MOF, producing SYSTEM-level execution.
