Unauthenticated command execution via democ parameter
Published Jun 23, 2023 · Updated Aug 29, 2025
Command injection in MagnusSolution MagnusBilling versions 6 and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands over HTTP. Demonstration code in lib/icepay/icepay.php passes the attacker-controlled democ GET parameter into exec() without neutralizing shell metacharacters. No authentication or user interaction is required, and commands run with the web server's privileges, enabling compromise of the billing system and its database.
