description

Movable Type Cloud Edition, Movable Type, Movable Type Premium Cloud Edition, and Movable Type Premium are affected by code injection in upgrade scripts. An unauthenticated attacker who can access the vulnerable upgrade functionality may execute Perl code or SQL queries.

mitigation

Restrict unauthenticated and public access to Movable Type upgrade scripts, including through network and web-server access controls. Contact Six Apart for an updated release or official remediation guidance; no fixed version is recorded in the advisory.
