{"id":"CVE-2024-42640","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2024-42640","generatedAt":"2026-11-04T21:14:29.067Z","title":"angular-base64-upload prior to v0.1.21 is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution via demo/server.php.","description":"angular-base64-upload prior to v0.1.21 is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution via demo/server.php. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to upload arbitrary content to the server, which can subsequently be accessed through demo/uploads. This leads to the execution of previously uploaded content and enables the attacker to achieve code execution on the server. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.","published":"2024-10-11T16:15:08.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T07:49:49.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-434"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.40214,"percentile":0.98639,"date":"2026-11-03","history":[{"date":"2026-10-03","score":0.39951,"percentile":0.98589}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":2,"verified":false,"firstPublished":"2025-04-04","source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[{"edbId":52253,"kind":"exploit","title":"Angular-Base64-Upload Library 0.1.21 - Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE)","url":"https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/52253","sourceUrl":"https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb/-/blob/main/exploits/multiple/webapps/52253.py","file":"exploits/multiple/webapps/52253.py","published":"2025-04-17","added":"2025-04-17","updated":"2025-04-17","author":"Ravindu Wickramasinghe","type":"webapps","platform":"multiple","port":null,"verified":false,"codes":["CVE-2024-42640"],"tags":null,"aliases":null,"applicationUrl":null,"screenshotUrl":null,"referenceUrl":null},{"edbId":52121,"kind":"exploit","title":"Angular-Base64-Upload Library 0.1.20 - Remote Code Execution (RCE)","url":"https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/52121","sourceUrl":"https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb/-/blob/main/exploits/multiple/remote/52121.py","file":"exploits/multiple/remote/52121.py","published":"2025-04-04","added":"2025-04-04","updated":"2025-04-13","author":"Ravindu Wickramasinghe","type":"remote","platform":"multiple","port":null,"verified":false,"codes":["CVE-2024-42640"],"tags":null,"aliases":null,"applicationUrl":null,"screenshotUrl":null,"referenceUrl":null}]},"verdict":{"level":"urgent","text":"EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 40.2%, higher than 99% of all known CVEs.
