| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Template CMS versions 2.1.1 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests. This can be done in two ways:
(1) by creating an administrator user via an "add" action to "admin/index.php" API endpoint,
(2) by conducting static PHP code injection attacks via the
themes editor parameter in an "edit template" action to "admin/index.php" API endpoint.Recommendations
For Template CMS versions 2.1.1 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "admin/index.php" API endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Avoid using the
themes editor parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
