Code execution via unneutralized CSV formulas
Published Aug 3, 2026 · Updated Aug 3, 2026
CSV injection in baserCMS before 5.3.0 allows remote attackers to execute malicious formulas when a user opens an exported CSV file. baserCMS does not neutralize formula-leading values before writing attacker-controlled data to CSV, but the affected export path and fields are undisclosed. Exploitation requires a user to download and open the generated file in formula-interpreting software, where the payload can execute scripts or commands.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
