Technical details

Windu CMS (confirmed in version 4.1) suffers from an unrestricted file upload vulnerability (CWE-434). The application fails to validate the extensions or content types of files uploaded to the server. An authenticated attacker with basic privileges can upload arbitrary files, including PHP scripts, to a web-accessible directory. By subsequently requesting the uploaded file, the attacker can execute arbitrary code on the underlying server. While the vendor was contacted, no patch has been confirmed, and the vulnerability may persist in other versions.
