CVE-2025-67164Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unrestricted PHP upload

Published Dec 17, 2025 · Updated Dec 17, 2025

Arbitrary file upload in Pagekit CMS 1.0.18 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP code through /storage/poc.php. The /storage/poc.php component accepts a crafted PHP upload without restricting dangerous executable file types, allowing the server to process the file. Authenticated access with low privileges is required; successful exploitation installs a persistent web shell with the server process's access.
