CVE-2024-6949Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Local file disclosure via unrestricted Eval include

Published Jul 21, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Path traversal in Gargaj Wuhu at commit 3faad49bfcc3895e9ff76a591d05c8941273d120 allows remote attackers to read local files. The pages.php News editor stores an {{Eval:...}} template directive, and minuswiki.inc.php passes its value to include without restricting traversal sequences or the resolved path. The administrative editor must be reachable; configured interface credentials require authentication, and disclosure is limited to files readable by the PHP process.
