Remote code execution via login SQL injection
Published Jul 25, 2025 · Updated May 15, 2026
SQL injection in Pandora FMS 5.0 SP2 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain administrator access and execute PHP code. The mobile/index.php login handler concatenates attacker-controlled login input into an SQL query, exposing an administrator or auto-login hash, while File Manager accepts unrestricted PHP files. No authentication is required initially; recovered access permits a web shell upload to a public directory and remote code execution.
