Technical details

The pre-installation endpoint web/instalador/instalador.php is reachable before config.php exists and accepts unauthenticated POST data without validation. In the Linux reinstall flow, a crafted usuario parameter reaches shell_exec(), enabling remote command execution. Additionally, attacker-controlled values are written into executable config.php and the unvalidated database name (nomebd) is concatenated into SQL CREATE DATABASE statements without escaping, enabling code injection and SQL injection. The vulnerability requires network access and no authentication.
