Authenticated command execution via phtml media upload
Published Apr 20, 2026 · Updated Apr 20, 2026
Unrestricted file upload in Vvveb CMS before 1.0.8.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute OS commands via a .phtml file. The media handler's uploadDenyExtensions list omits phtml, so it stores attacker-supplied PHP in the publicly accessible media directory. A valid CMS login is required; requesting the uploaded file executes the webshell with the web server's privileges.
