Unauthenticated code execution via PHP file inclusion
Published Mar 14, 2024 · Updated Mar 13, 2025
PHP file inclusion in EyouCMS 1.6.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through crafted template configuration data. The template configuration accepts attacker-controlled PHP content and includes it for execution, although the public report names no endpoint or function. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation runs code or system commands in the web application context.
