Administrator RCE via unsanitized ODT converter command
Published Apr 17, 2026 · Updated Apr 17, 2026
OS command injection in Dolibarr ERP & CRM before 23.0.0 allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to execute commands. In odf.php, the ODT-to-PDF path prepends MAIN_ODT_AS_PDF directly to a shell command passed to exec(), without sanitizing the setting. Administrator access and generation of an ODT template are required; injected commands run with the web server user's privileges.
