Unauthenticated code execution via unrestricted stream-wrapper paths
Published Jan 12, 2021 · Updated Oct 21, 2025
Code injection in Facade Ignition before 2.5.2 allows remote attackers to execute code through a Laravel debug endpoint. MakeViewVariableOptionalSolution passes the attacker-controlled viewFile path to file_get_contents() and file_put_contents(), permitting php:// filters and phar:// deserialization. Exploitation requires debug mode and uses the writable Laravel log as a PHAR payload, yielding command execution under the web process account.
