Authenticated JavaScript execution via unsanitized language filename
Published Dec 7, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Path traversal in Softaculous FileOrganizer 1.1.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript via default_lang. The plugin uses default_lang as a language filename without sanitizing it, allowing a crafted path to select and load an arbitrary JavaScript file. Administrator access is required; execution can bypass access controls or expose sensitive data, and uploaded safe-type files can lead to code execution.
