CuteNews version 1.4.1
Description
A directory traversal issue allows remote attackers to include arbitrary files and execute code, potentially gaining privileges. This is achieved by using "../" sequences in the
template parameter to API endpoints such as "show archives.php" and "show news.php".Recommendations
For CuteNews version 1.4.1, consider restricting access to the
show archives.php and show news.php endpoints until a patch is available, and avoid using the template parameter with untrusted input.Exploit
