DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in gougucms 4.08.18. This affects the function reg_submit of the file gougucms-master\app\home\controller\Login.php of the component User Registration Handler. Such manipulation of the argument level leads to dynamically-determined object attributes. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Authenticated remote code execution via mass assignment in GougoCMS 4.08.18 User Registration Handler allows attackers with valid credentials to manipulate the 'level' parameter during registration, exploiting dynamically-determined object attributes to escalate privileges or modify sensitive user properties. The vulnerability affects the reg_submit function in Login.php and has publicly available exploit code; however, the vendor has not responded to early disclosure notification.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The CVSS v4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) reflects a network-accessible vulnerability with low complexity requiring low-privilege authenticated access and no user interaction, yielding a CVSS score of 5.3 (Medium). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with valid GougoCMS user credentials accesses the user registration form and, using publicly available exploit code (documented at https://thinhneee.github.io/posts/gougu-mass-assign/), submits a crafted HTTP POST request with an injected 'level' parameter set to administrator value. The Login.php reg_submit function processes the request without attribute filtering, dynamically assigning the 'level' property to the user object, resulting in automatic privilege escalation. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; GougoCMS vendor contact failed to respond to early disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
