CVE-2025-32461Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unsanitized template filename

Published Apr 9, 2025 · Updated Nov 3, 2025

Server-side template injection in Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware before 28.3 allows remote authenticated users to execute OS commands through wiki pages. The includetpl plugin passes its attacker-controlled filename parameter directly to Smarty fetch(), allowing an eval resource to deserialize a crafted PHP object. An account permitted to create wiki pages and an enabled includetpl plugin are required; successful exploitation runs commands with the web server's privileges.
