Authenticated PHP code execution via image upload
Published May 10, 2026 · Updated May 10, 2026
PHP code injection in MegaTKC Aero CMS 0.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary PHP code through a malicious image upload. The add-post path in admin/posts.php accepts the image part as a PHP file and places it where the web server executes its contents. Access to the post-creation function is required, and successful exploitation runs code with the web server process's privileges.
