MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a pre-existing authenticated backend administrator account that holds the administrator-update permission in Feehi CMS 2.1.1; exploitation targets the user-management update flow, which fails to protect the built-in super administrator account and does not require that account's current/old password. Limiting factors: the attacker must already have valid privileged backend access (PR:H - escalation from a lower admin to super admin, not unauthenticated access), the specific administrator-update permission must be granted, and the target must be running the vulnerable 2.1.1 release; no victim user interaction is needed. |
| Impact | The input CVSS of 7.2 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) frames this as a High-severity but privilege-gated flaw: AV:N and AC:L make exploitation trivial once access exists, but PR:H confirms the attacker must already hold a privileged backend administrator account (specifically one with the administrator-update permission), so this is a privilege-escalation / account-takeover issue rather than a remote-unauthenticated breach. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or SSVC decision data was provided, and the input contains no confirmed POC flag - one reference points to a tao0845/CVE-Request technical write-up that likely documents the issue, but functional weaponized exploit code is not confirmed from the data. Weighing the signals: the C:H/I:H/A:H impact is realistic because resetting the built-in super administrator password yields full CMS control, yet practical risk is bounded by (a) the requirement for an existing privileged account and (b) the product's obscurity. Net assessment - a credible insider/second-stage escalation vector worth patching, but not a mass-exploitation priority; treat as medium real-world risk despite the High CVSS. The missing EPSS and absence from KEV mean there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation at time of analysis. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privilege backend administrator (for example a content or sub-admin account) that has been granted the administrator-update permission opens the user-management update flow and submits a new password for the built-in super administrator account without supplying the current password. Because the server does not protect that account, the super admin credentials are overwritten and the attacker logs in as super admin, gaining full control of the CMS. A technical write-up is referenced in the CVE request, but no confirmed functional exploit is identified in the provided data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026
Incorrect access control in Feehi CMS 2.1.1 allows a low-privilege backend administrator who holds the administrator-update permission to overwrite the password of the built-in super administrator account, achieving full super-admin takeover. The server neither protects the built-in super administrator record from modification nor requires the target account's current password during the update flow, so a single crafted backend request is sufficient. This is an authenticated privilege-escalation issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, rated 7.2 High) that requires a pre-existing privileged backend session; no public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis, and no vendor-released patch was identified in the available intelligence.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch was identified in the available intelligence for CVE-2026-95263, so remediation must currently rely on compensating controls while tracking the upstream repository (https://github.com/liufee/cms) and the NVD entry (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-95263) for an official fix; the CVE.org and EUVD references currently point only to the project repo, the request write-up (https://github.com/tao0845/CVE-Request/blob/main/CVE-2026-95263.md), and NVD, with no fixed version listed. Highest-value mitigation is to remove the administrator-update permission from every role except the absolute minimum set of trusted operators via the backend RBAC configuration, accepting the trade-off that routine admin account maintenance will then require a dedicated, tightly held account. Second, prevent password changes to the built-in super administrator through the web update flow - either by disabling that account's edit/password form or by hardening the update handler to require the target account's current password and to reject writes against the built-in super admin record - recognizing that any temporary code change will be lost on upgrade and must be re-applied. Third, because the update scenario does not require the old password, treat any password change on the super administrator account as a potential compromise indicator: alert on and audit such change events and force resets at the database level, which carries the operational cost of elevated DB access for legitimate resets. As a containment measure, restrict backend administrative access to a management network or IP allowlist and enforce strong unique credentials plus MFA in front of the backend, noting this limits but does not eliminate the privilege-escalation path for an already-authenticated low-privilege admin.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Feehi CMS is a PHP content management system built on the Yii2 framework, exposing a backend administrative console with role-based permissions. CVE-2026-95263 is classified under CWE-284 (Improper Access Control): the backend user-management update handler fails to enforce two distinct guards - it does not special-case or lock the built-in super administrator account, and it does not validate the current/old password of the account being modified. The result is a broken authorization boundary in which an operator with the 'administrator-update' permission can write to a record that should be outside their authorization scope, effectively escalating from a limited backend admin to the highest-privileged built-in account. The supplied CPE string (cpe:2.3:a:n/a:n/a) is unresolved and provides no vendor/product mapping, so scoping relies on the description and the ENISA EUVD entry (EUVD-2026-92783), both of which pin the affected release to Feehi CMS 2.1.1; the CVSS vector PR:H confirms the attacker must already be an authenticated privileged user, and UI:N confirms no victim interaction is needed.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Feehi CMS 2.1.1 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. A low-privilege backend administrator with administrator-update permission can change the password of the built-in super administrator account. The server does not enforce protection for this account, and the update scenario does not require the old password.
Executive ViewAI
Feehi CMS 2.1.1 contains an access-control flaw that allows a backend administrator holding update permissions to silently reset the built-in super administrator password and seize complete control of the site. Any organization running this CMS version is exposed the moment a single mid-level administrator account - or an attacker who has obtained one - decides to escalate, and the takeover can be completed with one crafted request that leaves the legitimate owner locked out. Because the vendor has not released a fix, leadership should treat every deployment of Feehi CMS 2.1.1 as functionally unpatched and prioritize containment over remediation timelines.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: strip the administrator-update permission from all non-essential backend accounts and enforce least privilege on backend roles; place the CMS administrative interface behind VPN or IP allowlisting with MFA; monitor and alert on changes to the built-in super administrator record; rotate super-admin credentials and use unique secrets; apply WAF virtual patching to block crafted requests to administrator password-update functionality; maintain offline backups of CMS data and configuration to support recovery if takeover occurs.
