CVE-2024-9102Public exploit

Client command execution via unsanitized CSV exports

Published Dec 19, 2024 · Updated Apr 16, 2025

CSV formula injection in phpLDAPadmin 1.2.0 through 1.2.6.7 allows remote authenticated users to embed commands in directory exports. The CSV export path copies LDAP attribute values into spreadsheet cells without filtering leading formula characters such as equals, plus, minus, or at signs. A recipient must open or import the export in a spreadsheet, and command execution through Excel DDE depends on client settings because DDE is disabled by default and can produce a warning.
