Discussion

CMS from Scratch 'image.php' Directory Traversal and Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerabilities

CMS from Scratch is prone to a directory-traversal issue and an arbitrary-file-upload issue because the application fails to sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can leverage the directory-traversal issue to view and manipulate arbitrary directories with the privileges of the webserver process. The attacker can exploit the file-upload issue to upload files and execute arbitrary script code in the context of the webserver process.

CMS from Scratch 1.1.3 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
