Concrete5 through 8.5.5 deserializes Untrusted Data.

HIGH 7.2EPSS 3.68%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.68%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Concrete5 through 8.5.5 deserializes Untrusted Data. The vulnerable code is located within the controllers/single_page/dashboard/system/environment/logging.php Logging::update_logging() method. User input passed through the logFile request parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in a call to the file_exists() PHP function. This can be exploited by malicious users to inject arbitrary PHP objects into the application scope (PHP Object Injection via phar:// stream wrapper), allowing them to carry out a variety of attacks, such as executing arbitrary PHP code.
