Arbitrary file upload via client-modified workflow code
Published Jun 24, 2022 · Updated Apr 16, 2025
Improper workflow enforcement in Sécheron SEPCOS firmware allows remote attackers to upload PHP-executable files through the web interface. The upload sequence trusts client-modifiable response code that a later script reuses, bypassing file-extension controls and storing attacker-chosen files in a PHP-executable location. The unauthenticated network path requires access to the embedded web server and places attacker-controlled PHP content in a server-executable location.
