Unauthenticated code execution via unrestricted JSP upload
Published Mar 19, 2024 · Updated Aug 13, 2024
Unrestricted file upload in Cegid Meta4 HR 819.001.022 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute code via a crafted JSP file. The update_password.jsp endpoint uses the M4_NEW_PASSWORD parameter to store an attacker-supplied JSP in an executable application directory. Exploitation requires the M4WebServices config folder to remain exposed on an Internet-facing server; loading the stored JSP executes its code.
