CVE-2023-1501Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unchecked upload rename

Published Mar 19, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Unrestricted file upload in Xinhu RockOA 2.3.2 allows remote authenticated users to place executable PHP code on the server. The qcloudCos runAction path accepts a fileid for an uploaded .uptemp object and renames it with a .php extension without validating its content or type. A low-privileged authenticated account can therefore make attacker-controlled PHP reachable for server-side code execution.
