DescriptionCVE.org

The template upload feature in Emlog Pro v2.6.9 has a path traversal vulnerability, allowing authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary PHP code. By uploading a malicious ZIP archive containing directory traversal sequences in filenames, an attacker can overwrite default template files or directly include malicious code files in the current template.

AnalysisAI

Authenticated remote code execution in Emlog Pro v2.6.9 stems from a path traversal flaw in the template upload feature that lets administrators write arbitrary PHP files outside the intended template directory. Attackers leverage crafted ZIP archives containing '../' sequences in member filenames to overwrite default template files or drop new PHP payloads inside the active template, yielding code execution under the web server account. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but a vulnerability report repository on GitHub demonstrates the issue.

Technical ContextAI

Emlog Pro is a PHP-based personal blogging platform widely used in Chinese-language communities, and its admin panel exposes a template management feature that accepts ZIP archives. The root cause is CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory), where the ZIP extraction routine fails to canonicalize or sanitize entry filenames before joining them to the destination path. Because PHP's default ZipArchive usage trusts archive metadata, directory traversal sequences in 'name' fields cause files to be written into arbitrary locations under the webroot, and any resulting .php file is directly executable by the interpreter.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; defenders should monitor https://www.emlog.net/ and the project's release channels for a fixed build later than 2.6.9 and upgrade as soon as one is published. In the interim, restrict access to the /admin template-management endpoints via web server ACLs or a WAF rule so only trusted IP ranges can reach the upload handler, enforce strong unique credentials and MFA on every administrator account (since exploitation requires PR:H, this cuts off the realistic attack path), and consider temporarily disabling template installation by removing write permissions on the template directory for the PHP process - note that this will break legitimate theme installs and updates. As an additional control, deploy a server-side check or mod_security rule that rejects ZIP uploads whose entry names contain '..' or absolute paths, accepting the trade-off that some legitimate archives produced by non-conformant tools may also be blocked.
