CVE-2026-27894Network attack vector

Authenticated PHP code execution via PDF file inclusion

Published Mar 17, 2026 · Updated Mar 17, 2026

Local file inclusion in LDAP Account Manager before 9.5 allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP code through PDF export. The PDF export component accepts a user-controlled local PHP file reference and loads it without restricting the include target. A valid LAM login is required; direct exploitation exposes internal logic or data, while arbitrary code execution as the web-server user requires the companion upload flaw.
