CVE-2018-10521
In CMS Made Simple (CMSMS) through 2.2.7, the "file move" operation in the admin dashboard contains an arbitrary file movement vulnerability that can cause DoS, exploitable by an admin user, because config.php can be moved into an incorrect directory.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.86%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
