CVE-2023-24676
An issue found in ProcessWire 3.0.210 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code and install a reverse shell via the download_zip_url parameter when installing a new module.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.31%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An issue found in ProcessWire 3.0.210 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code and install a reverse shell via the download_zip_url parameter when installing a new module. NOTE: this is disputed because exploitation requires that the attacker is able to enter requests as an admin; however, a ProcessWire admin is intentionally allowed to install any module that contains any arbitrary code.
