Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HongCMS version 3.0.0

Description The issue allows for arbitrary file deletion. This can be achieved by manipulating the file parameter in the /admin/index.php/language/ajax endpoint with a ../ sequence and setting the action parameter to delete.

Recommendations For HongCMS version 3.0.0, avoid using the delete action in the /admin/index.php/language/ajax endpoint until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to this endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
