Administrator-level code execution via auto-run module installer
Published Dec 11, 2025 · Updated Dec 11, 2025
Unrestricted file upload in WBCE CMS 1.6.3 and earlier allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to execute PHP code. The admin/modules/install.php handler accepts a ZIP containing info.php, extracts it, and automatically requires its install.php script without constraining its PHP content. Administrator access to the module installer is required; a crafted module can run commands with the web-server process privileges and establish remote system access.
