Authenticated code execution via PHAR header inspection
Published Jul 30, 2025 · Updated Jul 5, 2026
PHAR deserialization in PrestaShop 8.2.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code through a crafted POST request. The simpleimportproduct module's AdminProductsimportController::_getHeaders passes an attacker-controlled file_url to get_headers, which resolves phar:// metadata and triggers object deserialization. Exploitation requires a valid back-office session and request token; successful gadget execution runs attacker-supplied code in the web application's context.
