Authenticated PHP execution via overbroad FilesMatch handler
Published Dec 9, 2022 · Updated Apr 22, 2025
Unrestricted file upload in Akeneo PIM Community Edition before 5.0.119 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.52 allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP. The Apache FilesMatch rule routes every uploaded path ending in .php to PHP-FPM instead of limiting execution to the front controller. A valid low-privilege account and the overbroad Apache rule are required, granting code execution in the server context.
