Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.23%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

An issue was discovered in DedeCMS V5.7 SP2. uploads/include/dialog/select_images_post.php allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code via a double extension and a modified ".php" substring, in conjunction with the image/jpeg content type, as demonstrated by the filename=1.jpg.p*hp value.
