AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026

Unauthenticated module deletion in Majordomo's market module allows remote attackers to completely disable installations through a series of GET requests. The vulnerability stems from improper authentication checks that expose the uninstall functionality without requiring credentials, enabling attackers to iteratively remove all modules and associated files. Public exploit code exists for this high-severity flaw, and no patch is currently available.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Classified as CWE-862 (Missing Authorization). Affects the market component of Majordomo. MajorDoMo (aka Major Domestic Module) allows unauthenticated arbitrary module uninstallation through the market module. The market module's admin() method reads gr('mode') from $_REQUEST and assigns it to $this->mode at the start of execution, making all mode-gated code paths reachable without authentication via the /objects/?module=market endpoint. The uninstall mode handler calls uninstallPlugin(), which deletes module records from the database, executes the module's uninstall() method via eva

DescriptionCVE.org

MajorDoMo (aka Major Domestic Module) allows unauthenticated arbitrary module uninstallation through the market module. The market module's admin() method reads gr('mode') from $_REQUEST and assigns it to $this->mode at the start of execution, making all mode-gated code paths reachable without authentication via the /objects/?module=market endpoint. The uninstall mode handler calls uninstallPlugin(), which deletes module records from the database, executes the module's uninstall() method via eval(), recursively deletes the module's directory and template files using removeTree(), and removes associated cycle scripts. An attacker can iterate through module names and wipe the entire MajorDoMo installation with a series of unauthenticated GET requests.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

MajorDoMo installations are vulnerable to unauthorized module removal by unauthenticated attackers, potentially disabling critical functionality and causing service disruption. This vulnerability poses an immediate risk to any organization running affected versions, as exploitation requires no authentication and public exploit code exists.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Disable or restrict access to the market module at the network level (WAF rules, firewall ACLs); segment MajorDoMo systems from untrusted networks; implement API gateway authentication in front of the application; monitor for suspicious module removal attempts in application logs; restrict administrative functions to authenticated, authorized users only through network segmentation.
