Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
CMS Made Simple versions 2.2.7
Description:
The issue allows for a privilege escalation from an ordinary user to an admin user. This is achieved by manipulating the
eff uid value within the $ COOKIE[$this-> loginkey] to equal 1. The vulnerability exists due to files in the tmp/ directory being accessible through HTTP requests, which is a result of an incorrect fix for a previous issue.Recommendations:
For CMS Made Simple version 2.2.7, consider restricting access to the tmp/ directory to prevent exploitation through HTTP requests. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the
eff uid value in the $ COOKIE[$this-> loginkey] to authenticate users until a proper fix is available.Exploit
