Joomla Extension - yootheme.com - Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload in Zoo < 4.1.64 - The image element accepts arbitrary files when the client-supplied Content-Type falls within the image MIME group.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload in the YOOtheme Zoo content-builder extension for Joomla (versions before 4.1.64) allows remote attackers to upload arbitrary files, including web shells, because the image element only validates the client-supplied Content-Type header against the image MIME group rather than the actual file contents or extension. Rated CVSS 4.0 base 10.0 with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact plus scope change, this is a critical pre-authentication flaw. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The vulnerable path is the Zoo 'image element' upload feature: exploitation requires that a Zoo image element / upload endpoint be reachable by the attacker and accept submissions without prior authentication, and that the attacker set the HTTP Content-Type header to a value within the image MIME group (e.g. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment All available signals point to genuine high priority: the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation with no privileges and no user interaction, and the impact metrics (VC:H/VI:H/VA:H, SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) reflect that a successful upload of executable code yields full compromise of the host. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A remote, unauthenticated attacker locates a Joomla site running a vulnerable Zoo image element and submits a POST request uploading a PHP web shell while setting the request Content-Type header to an image type such as image/jpeg. The server accepts the file based solely on that header, storing the executable script in a web-accessible directory; the attacker then requests the uploaded file's URL to execute commands and gain a foothold. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: 4.1.64 - upgrade the Zoo extension to version 4.1.64 or later, which is the primary and complete fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Joomla deployments using Zoo extension and immediately disable the extension or restrict access to administrative users only. …
