Codiad · Codiad · CVE-2017-11366
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Codiad versions prior to 2.8.4
**Description**
The issue allows for remote command execution because shell commands can be embedded in parameter values. This is demonstrated by the `search file type` parameter.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 2.8.4, update to version 2.8.4 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `class.filemanager.php` file until a patch is available.
Avoid using the `search file type` parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
