Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below fails to sanitize path traversal sequences in the ptComposerFormLayoutSetControlCustomTemplate field when saving page type composer form layouts. An authenticated rogue administrator with composer form editing rights can exploit this to include arbitrary readable files on the server. Combined with the file uploader's extension-only validation (which permits PHP code in files saved with image extensions like .png), this can result in authenticated remote code execution. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v.4.0 score of 9.4 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H Thanks Yonatan Drori (Tenzai) for reporting.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated remote code execution in Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and earlier allows an administrator with composer form editing privileges to chain a path traversal flaw in the ptComposerFormLayoutSetControlCustomTemplate field with the platform's permissive file uploader to execute arbitrary PHP on the server. The vendor scored this 9.4 (CVSS v4.0) reflecting high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact across both the vulnerable component and downstream subsequent systems. …

RemediationAI
Within 24 hours: Inventory all Concrete CMS deployments and determine which run versions 9.5.0 or earlier; immediately audit and restrict composer form editing privileges to only essential administrators. Within 7 days: Implement compensating controls (detailed below), enable enhanced logging of administrative form editing and upload activities, and brief security team on indicators of exploitation. …
