Contributor-level code execution via unrestricted file inclusion
Published Jul 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Local file inclusion in Panda Video 1.4.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute uploaded PHP through selected_button. The PandaButton widget uses the selected_button request value as a PHP inclusion path without restricting it to an allowed directory. Contributor-level access is required, and code execution depends on placing an includable file on the server.
