Authenticated command execution via editable FreeMarker template
Published Oct 28, 2025 · Updated Oct 28, 2025
Server-side template injection in zhangyd-c OneBlog 2.3.9 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute operating-system commands. The template2String function in FreeMarkerUtil.java parses stored TM_ROBOTS content as a FreeMarker template, allowing its Execute helper to invoke commands when /robots.txt is rendered. Background management access is required to edit TM_ROBOTS; a later request to /robots.txt triggers execution under the server process account.
