Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHPKIT versions 1.6.1 R2 and earlier

Description A directory traversal issue might allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary PHP code. This can be achieved by including a .. (dot dot) in the path parameter and a %00 at the end of the filename, as demonstrated by an avatar filename ending with .png%00.

Recommendations For PHPKIT versions 1.6.1 R2 and earlier, avoid using the path parameter with .. (dot dot) and %00 at the end of the filename until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive directories to minimize the risk of exploitation.
