Administrator-to-server code execution via unsanitized Droplets
Published Aug 3, 2026 · Updated Aug 3, 2026
Code injection in WebsiteBaker CMS before 2.13.10 allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP through the Droplets editor. The save_droplet handler writes the Code field verbatim to a predictable, web-accessible PHP file without sanitizing its contents. Administrator access is required to save the file, after which direct HTTP requests execute the webshell with the server process's privileges.
