CVE-2026-93352: Laravel-Mediable incomplete patch for file upload RCE

CVE-2026-93352 · Severity: critical · CVSS 9.8 · Published 2026-09-23

Laravel-Mediable is a file upload and media management library for the Laravel web framework. A patch for a previous vulnerability was incomplete, leaving the .pht file extension unblocked. On Apache servers with standard configuration, uploading a .pht file allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the web server, leading to complete system compromise.

Technical details

The vulnerable library fails to block .pht files in its forbidden_extensions configuration despite patching CVE-2026-49972, which blocked .phpt. Apache's default FilesMatch directive on Debian/Ubuntu systems executes .pht files as PHP. An attacker can bypass MediaUploader::verifyExtension() and File::sanitizeFileName() validation by uploading a .pht file, which is written to disk and executed as PHP code when accessed, granting RCE with web server privileges. The fix adds 'pht' to the blocklist in config/mediable.php.
