Administrator code execution via editable language PHP
Published Jul 1, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Remote code execution in HongCMS 3.0 allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to execute PHP code via language settings. HongCMS stores editable language configuration in public/languages/Chinese.php, an executable PHP file, so injected code runs when that file is requested. Administrator access to the backstage interface is required, and exploitation provides code execution in the web server process context.
