CVE-2021-33949Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via unfiltered filename

Published Feb 17, 2023 · Updated Mar 18, 2025

Command injection in FeMiner WMS 1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary operating-system commands through a crafted filename. In system/databak.php, the filename POST parameter passes without filtering to PHP's exec function, allowing shell metacharacters to append commands. The network-accessible proof of concept requires no authentication and adds a Windows system user, demonstrating host command execution.
