CVE-2021-48016
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-8g3p-p68p-pg53 ↗EUVD-2021-34899 ↗
description
DedeCMS through 5.8.1-beta is affected by PHP code injection in its message-handling logic. An unauthenticated remote attacker may execute PHP and operating-system commands when the affected submission endpoint is exposed and accepts requests without a validation code.
mitigation
Disable or restrict access to the affected link-submission endpoint if it is not required, and enforce validation for submissions. Apply a vendor-supported corrected release when one is identified; the supplied evidence does not establish a fixed version.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
source signals
Public signals that triggered or updated the pipeline. These are inputs for the deltas above.
