Authenticated code execution via upload filter bypass
Published May 12, 2026 · Updated May 12, 2026
Unrestricted file upload in MK-Auth 23.01K4.9 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code through a crafted PHP file. The Central/Suporte/Fale Conosco uploader accepts a name ending in .phpJunk123png, stores it under /mkfiles, and lets the web server interpret it as PHP. Exploitation requires an authenticated account and discovery of the randomized filename prefix before requesting the stored file, which executes its PHP content.
