Remote Code Execution
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
How It Works
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access. Unlike a single vulnerability class, RCE is an outcome—the catastrophic result of exploiting underlying weaknesses in how applications process input, manage memory, or handle executable content.
Attackers typically achieve RCE by chaining vulnerabilities or exploiting a single critical flaw. Common pathways include injecting malicious payloads through deserialization flaws (where untrusted data becomes executable objects), command injection (where user input flows into system commands), buffer overflows (overwriting memory to hijack execution flow), or unsafe file uploads (placing executable code on the server). Server-Side Template Injection and SQL injection can also escalate to code execution when attackers leverage database or template engine features.
The attack flow usually begins with reconnaissance to identify vulnerable endpoints, followed by crafting a payload that exploits the specific weakness, then executing commands to establish persistence or pivot deeper into the network. Modern exploits often use multi-stage payloads—initial lightweight code that downloads and executes more sophisticated tooling.
Impact
- Complete system compromise — attacker gains shell access with application privileges, potentially escalating to root/SYSTEM
- Data exfiltration — unrestricted access to databases, configuration files, credentials, and sensitive business data
- Lateral movement — compromised server becomes a beachhead to attack internal networks and other systems
- Ransomware deployment — direct pathway to encrypt files and disable backups
- Persistence mechanisms — installation of backdoors, web shells, and rootkits for long-term access
- Supply chain attacks — modification of application code or dependencies to compromise downstream users
Real-World Examples
The n8n workflow automation platform (CVE-2024-21858) demonstrated how RCE can emerge in unexpected places-attackers exploited unsafe workflow execution to run arbitrary code on self-hosted instances. The Log4j vulnerability (Log4Shell) showed RCE at massive scale when attackers sent specially crafted JNDI lookup strings that triggered remote class loading in Java applications worldwide.
Atlassian Confluence instances have faced multiple RCE vulnerabilities through OGNL injection flaws, where attackers inject Object-Graph Navigation Language expressions that execute with server privileges. These required no authentication, enabling attackers to compromise thousands of internet-exposed instances within hours of disclosure.
Mitigation
- Input validation and sanitization — strict allowlists for all user-controlled data, especially in execution contexts
- Sandboxing and containerization — isolate application processes with minimal privileges using containers, VMs, or security contexts
- Disable dangerous functions — remove or restrict features like code evaluation, system command execution, and dynamic deserialization
- Network segmentation — limit blast radius by isolating sensitive systems and restricting outbound connections
- Web Application Firewalls — detect and block common RCE patterns in HTTP traffic
- Runtime application self-protection (RASP) — monitor application behavior for execution anomalies
- Regular patching — prioritize updates for components with known RCE vulnerabilities
Recent CVEs (5482)
Remote code execution in Tasmota firmware version 15.3.0.3 and earlier allows remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow in the fetch_jpg() function of the xdrv_10_scripter.ino scripting driver. The flaw is exposed over the network with low complexity and no privileges required (CVSS 7.3 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), and a public proof-of-concept repository has been registered, though no public exploit code was identified in the references at time of analysis. EPSS probability is very low (0.05%, 15th percentile) and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Unauthenticated remote command injection in the Netis AC1200 Router (model NC21, firmware V4.0.1.4296) allows any LAN-resident attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands as the router's runtime user via a single HTTP POST to /cgi-bin/skk_set.cgi. The password and new_pwd_confirm parameters are concatenated into a shell invocation without sanitization, and exploitation requires no credentials. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, though the disclosure repository documents the technique (base64-encoded backtick payloads), and EPSS scoring (0.21%) suggests limited broad exploitation pressure despite the trivial attack complexity.
OS command injection in MB connect line / Helmholz mbNET and REX industrial remote-maintenance routers (mbNET.mini up to 3.0.2, REX200/250 and mbNET/mbNET.rokey up to 8.4.4, REX100 up to 3.0.2) lets a high-privilege authenticated user poison the device's configuration generator so that a tainted value is later passed unsanitized to a system execute call, producing arbitrary command execution with total loss of confidentiality, integrity and availability. The flaw was reported through CERT@VDE (advisory VDE-2026-054) and tracked as EUVD-2026-32151. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.07%, 22nd percentile), and CISA's SSVC framework rates current exploitation as none.
Code execution is possible on MB connect line industrial remote-maintenance routers - mbNET/mbNET.rokey, mbNET.mini, and the REX100/REX200/250 families - when a local attacker supplies a specially crafted configuration file on a USB stick that triggers a type-confusion flaw in the device's cfgparser, yielding total loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CVSS 8.4). The flaw requires local/physical access to the device rather than network reach. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score is very low (0.02%, 7th percentile), consistent with the SSVC assessment of no observed exploitation.
Remote code execution in Synology BeeStation OS versions before 1.3.2-65648 stems from a classic buffer overflow in the AdminCenter component, the device's web-based management interface. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicates a network-reachable flaw exploitable by unauthenticated attackers with low complexity and no user interaction, yielding full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (9.8 Critical). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV, but the unauthenticated network-RCE profile on a consumer NAS device makes this a high-priority patch target.
Remote code execution in the WPCode WordPress plugin (versions through 2.3.5) lets authenticated author-level users run arbitrary PHP on the server. Because the plugin registers its 'wpcode' custom post type without a dedicated capability_type, WordPress falls back to standard post capabilities, so any author can create and publish PHP snippet posts via the XML-RPC wp.newPost method, which are later passed to eval() when rendered through the [wpcode] shortcode. EPSS is modest at 0.44% (63rd percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the low privilege bar and full CIA impact make this a high-priority patch for any multi-author site.
Remote code execution in the affiliate-toolkit WordPress plugin ("Multi-Network Affiliate & Amazon Product Display") affects versions up to and including 3.8.5, letting authenticated users with Editor-level access or higher run arbitrary PHP on the host. The flaw stems from the bundled BladeOne template engine's runString() method, which compiles attacker-supplied template content into PHP and executes it through eval() with no sanitization or sandboxing. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS sits at a low 0.24%, but the technical impact is total because a successful injection yields full server-side code execution.
Arbitrary root code execution in Phoenix Contact PLCnext Control devices (all firmware before 2026.0.3) is reachable by an authenticated low-privileged Engineer user who installs APP packages from the PLCnext Store through the Web-based Management (WBM) interface. Because the device never verifies the integrity or signature of the downloaded app (CWE-347, tagged JWT Attack), a tampered package runs as root and can compromise the integrity and availability of the controller. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.06%, 18th percentile), but the flaw is network-reachable with low attack complexity and a vendor patch (2026.0.3) is available.
Local File Inclusion in the Query Shortcode plugin for WordPress (all versions through 0.2.1) lets authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher coerce the shortcode handler into including and executing arbitrary .php files already present on the server. Because included files are run by the PHP interpreter, this can leak sensitive data, bypass access controls, and escalate to full remote code execution where an attacker can also place a .php file (e.g. via an upload feature). EPSS rates near-term exploitation probability very low (0.07%, 21st percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Arbitrary Perl code execution in the IO::Compress distribution (all versions before 2.220) lets an attacker who controls the output glob string passed to the bundled File::GlobMapper run arbitrary Perl at the calling process's privilege. The output glob is wrapped in double quotes and later handed to Perl's eval STRING, so an embedded double quote escapes the string context and the trailing characters execute as code. This is rated CVSS 7.3 and tagged RCE/Code Injection; no public exploit was identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.03%), but a vendor patch (2.220) and the fixing commit are publicly available.
OS command injection in Tanium Connect lets an authenticated, low-privileged user execute arbitrary commands on the underlying host, yielding full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise (CVSS 8.8). The flaw affects Connect branches 5.26, 5.29, and 5.37 below their respective fixed builds and is tagged as RCE/Command Injection. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS estimates exploitation probability at a low 0.07% (22nd percentile).
Arbitrary code execution in GDAL 3.1.0 through 3.13.0 is reachable through the netCDF driver, where scanForGeometryContainers (frmts/netcdf/netcdfsg.cpp) copies a CF-convention geometry attribute into a fixed-size stack buffer without checking its length. Any service or workflow that feeds attacker-supplied NetCDF files to GDAL can be coerced into overflowing the stack and running attacker code in the process context. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS is just 0.01% (3rd percentile), yet the issue carries a CVSS of 7.4 because the outcome is full remote code execution on the host.
Remote code execution in Yamcs (Yet Another Mission Control System) versions before 5.12.7 allows an authenticated user holding the ChangeMissionDatabase privilege to run arbitrary OS commands on the server host. The flaw lives in the JavaExprAlgorithmExecutionFactory, which dynamically compiles user-supplied algorithm text with the Janino compiler without any sandbox or restrictive ClassLoader, so injected Java (e.g. java.lang.Runtime.exec) executes with the privileges of the Yamcs process. A detailed proof-of-concept exploit using a REST PATCH to override an existing algorithm is publicly available in the vendor advisory; the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Arbitrary method call in Kirby CMS (versions ≤ 4.9.0 and 5.0.0–5.4.0) lets attackers in the pool of authenticated Panel users invoke unintended PHP model methods by abusing REST API search and collection-query parameters such as filter, sort, not, group, pluck, and findBy. Because Kirby did not validate which model attributes a query could reference, an attacker can reach sensitive methods like password() to leak password hashes, root() to disclose absolute server filesystem paths, loginPasswordless() to escalate into another user's account, or delete() to mass-delete queried models. No CVSS score, EPSS probability, or CISA KEV listing is provided in the source data, and no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, though the vendor rates the real-world impact as high.
Unauthenticated remote code execution in FUXA 1.3.0 (the fuxa-server npm package) lets any network-reachable attacker run arbitrary OS commands on the SCADA/HMI host when secureEnabled is true. The POST /api/runscript endpoint authorizes a request against a stored script's permission, but with test:true it instead compiles and runs attacker-supplied code via Node's Module._compile, so a guest who knows a valid script ID and name (leaked via the unauthenticated GET /api/project endpoint) can execute code with full Node runtime access. Publicly available exploit code exists in the vendor advisory; no CVSS, EPSS, or CISA KEV data is provided.
Pre-authentication remote code execution affects FUXA, an open-source web-based SCADA/HMI platform, in versions >= 1.2.11 and < 1.3.1 (the advisory references build v1.3.0-2706). The flaw is a path-confusion authentication bypass: the login middleware performs a substring match against the full request URL (including the query string), so appending a benign-looking parameter such as ?x=/socket.io to any administrative request causes the server to treat it as a public WebSocket handshake and skip the secureEnabled and nodeRedAuthMode checks entirely. When Node-RED is enabled with command-capable nodes, this reaches the /nodered/* admin interface and yields code execution in the container context (advisory states 'as root'). The GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-p69w-mmfv-xrfj) discloses the exact bypass payload, so publicly available exploit details exist; there is no CISA KEV listing and no public report of active exploitation at time of analysis.
Linked Data Signature forgery in Fedify (the @fedify/fedify ActivityPub server framework) before 2.2.3 lets remote unauthenticated attackers reshape a third-party-signed activity so it is interpreted differently while its signature still verifies. Because the signature covers the canonical RDF graph rather than the JSON-LD serialization, an attacker who has received a signed activity can use JSON-LD keywords (@graph, @reverse, @included) or context-alias tricks to promote, hide, or rewrite fields and have the forged result accepted as authentic. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not in CISA KEV, but the GitHub Security Advisory documents the exact restructuring techniques in detail.
Arbitrary package installation leading to code execution affects the yeoman-environment npm library (the runtime behind the Yeoman/`yo` scaffolding CLI) in versions >= 2.9.0 and < 6.0.1. The vulnerable `installLocalGenerators()` method silently calls `repository.install()` on caller-supplied package names without any user confirmation, so a downstream CLI that passes attacker-controlled project configuration into this path will install and execute attacker-chosen packages during bootstrap. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not on CISA KEV; CVSS is 8.6 (high) but exploitation is contingent on how consumers feed configuration into the library.
Remote code execution in Lumiverse AI chat application prior to 0.9.7 allows any authenticated user to run arbitrary OS-level commands on the server by abusing the MCP server creation endpoint. Although the endpoint allowlists binary names (node, bun, python3, deno), it forwards user-controlled args unfiltered to the child process, and every allowed binary supports inline code execution flags (-e or -c). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 9.9 rating reflects the trivial exploit path and the fact that the server binds on all interfaces with a bypassable host-header rebinding check.
Remote code execution in FastNetMon Community Edition through 1.2.9 stems from an off-by-one heap write in the pervasively-used dynamic_binary_buffer_t class, reachable by anyone who can send NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, or BGP traffic to the DDoS-detection appliance. Because the flawed buffer is exercised during BGP encoding/decoding, NetFlow template parsing, and Flow Spec NLRI construction, an unauthenticated network attacker can corrupt adjacent heap metadata and potentially execute arbitrary code. The flaw carries a critical CVSS 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), but no public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
NitroSense 3.x before 3.01.3052 contains Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerability.The program exposes a Windows Named Pipe that uses a custom protocol to invoke internal functions. However, this Named Pipe is misconfigured, allowing any authenticated local user to execute arbitrary code with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges and to delete arbitrary files with SYSTEM privileges. By leveraging this, an attacker can execute arbitrary code on the target system with elevated privileges.
Command injection in Prefect 3.6.18's GitHub integration allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary git commands through the unsanitized reference field. The GitHubRepository block concatenates user input directly into git clone commands, enabling attackers to inject malicious options that can lead to SSRF, credential theft, or remote code execution. While no active exploitation is confirmed, the straightforward attack vector and high impact make this a priority for organizations using Prefect's GitHub integration features.
Remote code injection in vps-inventory-monitoring allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code through the VpsTest console command. The vulnerability exists in the eval() function within VpsTest.php, exploitable by manipulating the 'vf' parameter with low attack complexity. Publicly available exploit code exists (GitHub POC published), and the maintainer has not responded to early disclosure attempts. CVSS 6.3 reflects moderate impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, with EPSS data unavailable but risk elevated by confirmed POC and unresponsive vendor.
Arbitrary code execution in Docker Desktop's Model Runner on macOS allows any container on the Docker network to escape to the host by serving a malicious model whose config.json points model_file at a Python file. The MLX inference backend uses MLX-LM's importlib-based loader with no trust_remote_code gate and no sandbox, so a pull-and-infer request to model-runner.docker.internal executes attacker code as the Docker Desktop user. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and KEV status is not indicated.
Arbitrary code execution in Docker Model Runner's vllm-metal inference backend on macOS allows any container on the Docker network to execute Python code on the host as the Docker Desktop user. The vllm-metal backend hardcodes trust_remote_code=True when loading tokenizers and runs unsandboxed, so any model pulled from an OCI registry can ship attacker-controlled Python that executes when inference is requested via the model-runner.docker.internal API. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
An issue was discovered in all versions of PCManFM-Qt starting from 1.1.0. When a regular file's path is passed as a URI in an org.freedesktop.FileManager1.ShowFolders D-Bus method call, PCManFM-Qt delegates to a different program (based on the file type) without user confirmation. This could be used to achieve code execution or circumvent network namespace restrictions. NOTE: those outcomes are potentially unwanted by most users; however, the behavior of the product does comply with the applicable specification, and a simplistic solution (ensuring that the URI does not name a regular file) may have adverse consequences for I/O.
Arbitrary code execution in Amazon Braket Python SDK versions prior to 1.117.0 allows an authenticated attacker with S3 write access to the job output bucket to compromise any client machine that processes those job results. The flaw stems from insecure pickle deserialization in the job results processing component, and while no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, the impact extends to every downstream consumer of poisoned results. EPSS data is unavailable, but the supply-chain-style propagation across analyst workstations and CI systems materially raises real-world risk.
Remote code execution in Ivanti Secure Access Client versions prior to 22.8R6 allows unauthenticated attackers to run arbitrary code on endpoints by exploiting improper TLS certificate validation, contingent on user interaction (UI:R). No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 8.8 rating and Ivanti's own advisory disclosure mark this as a high-priority client-side risk for organizations using the VPN client.
The fix for CVE-2025-48913: Apache CXF: Untrusted JMS configuration can lead to RCE was not complete, meaning that another path in the code might lead to code execution capabilities, if untrusted users are allowed to configure JMS for Apache CXF. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.1, 4.1.6 or 3.6.11, which fix this issue.
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in SketchUp 2026's Dynamic Components feature allows remote code execution and local file exfiltration through maliciously crafted SKP files. The vulnerability stems from improper input sanitization in the component options window, enabling attackers to execute arbitrary system commands and read local files without user interaction by exploiting an embedded Internet Explorer 11 browser.
Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Easy Chat Server 3.1 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information and execute arbitrary code via the chat message functionality
An issue in ClipBucket v5 v.5.5.2 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via the Authentication interface, login page endpoint and HTTP response security headers components
Directory Traversal vulnerability in Easy Chat Server 3.1 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information and execute arbitrary code via the UserName parameter
Unauthenticated cross-origin MCP tool invocation in Network-AI v5.4.4 allows a remote attacker to lure a victim to a malicious web page that silently invokes any of the 22 exposed MCP tools (including config_set, agent_spawn, blackboard_write, and token_create/revoke) against the victim's locally running MCP SSE server. The vulnerability stems from an empty default secret combined with a wildcard CORS policy, and publicly available exploit code exists in the GHSA advisory demonstrating end-to-end exploitation. No CISA KEV listing yet and EPSS data was not provided, but the published PoC and trivial attack mechanics make this a meaningful risk for any user running the default Docker deployment.
Arbitrary file write on the host in Boxlite sandbox service versions prior to 0.9.0 allows attackers to escape the OCI image extraction root via crafted symlink entries in layer tarballs, enabling remote code execution on the host (typically as root). Exploitation requires a user to pull and load a malicious OCI image distributed through registries such as DockerHub. Publicly available exploit code exists (vendor-published PoC); no public exploit identified in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
Sandbox escape in Boxlite versions prior to 0.9.0 lets untrusted code running inside the lightweight VM remount host-shared virtiofs directories from read-only to read-write, enabling arbitrary writes to host files that operators believed were protected. Because the container is granted all 41 Linux capabilities (including CAP_SYS_ADMIN), a trivial 'mount -o remount,rw' bypasses the client-side MS_RDONLY enforcement, and in AI-agent deployments this leads to host code execution by tampering with mounted code, virtualenvs, or credentials. Publicly available exploit code exists (working PoC published in the GHSA advisory) and the issue carries a CVSS 10.0 with scope change; no public exploit identified at time of analysis in CISA KEV.
Arbitrary PHP code execution in Twig templating engine versions 3.15.0 through 3.25.x allows attackers who control template source to inject raw PHP into the compiled template via the `_self.(<string>)` dynamic-attribute macro-reference path, fully bypassing the SandboxExtension. The flaw executes injected code at template-load time, before any SecurityPolicy check runs, rendering even a globally-enabled empty allowlist sandbox ineffective. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the vendor advisory describes the bypass mechanism in enough detail that PoC development is straightforward.
Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload in the BookingPress Pro WordPress plugin (versions ≤5.6) enables remote code execution by abusing missing file type validation in the bookingpress_validate_submitted_booking_form_func function. Exploitation requires the booking form to include a signature custom field, but otherwise needs no authentication or user interaction. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though Wordfence's disclosure and the CWE-434 pattern make weaponization straightforward.
Sandbox escape in Twig 3.9.0-3.25.x allows any attacker with template authoring access to fully bypass `SourcePolicyInterface`-driven security policies, enabling OS command execution via `|map("system")` and secret disclosure via `constant()`. The bypass occurs because `Environment::createTemplate()` compiles inline strings under a synthesized name (`__string_template__<hash>`) that name/path-based `SourcePolicy` implementations do not recognize, causing `checkSecurity()` to silently become a no-op on the inner template. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, though the vendor advisory provides sufficient technical detail for reproduction, and the RCE tag confirms the potential impact is critical for affected configurations.
{% use %}` tags to break out of compiled cache file string literals and execute arbitrary PHP code. The flaw bypasses the Twig sandbox entirely because `SecurityPolicy` unconditionally permits `{% use %}` regardless of `allowedTags` configuration. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA-7p85-w9px-jpjp) discloses the full exploitation primitive.
Remote code execution in Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and earlier is achievable through a CSRF flaw in the /dashboard/extend/update/prepare_remote_upgrade/<remoteMPID> endpoint, which fails to validate anti-CSRF tokens. An attacker who controls a marketplace package matching an item ID already installed on the victim site can overwrite package PHP files and trigger the upgrade() method via a single navigation by a privileged admin, resulting in code execution as the web server user. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the vendor (Concrete CMS security team) has acknowledged and rated the issue at CVSS 4.0 7.5.
Cross-site request forgery in Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to coerce an authenticated administrator with canInstallPackages permission into installing an attacker-controlled package, resulting in remote code execution as the web server user. The flaw resides in the install_package() method of the dashboard's extend/install.php controller, which lacks CSRF token validation. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Denial-of-service via unchecked memory allocation in russh (Rust SSH library) versions <= 0.60.2 allows local SSH agent peers to trigger uncontrolled buffer growth by sending oversized frame length values, and in pre-0.58.0 releases the same CryptoVec allocation path was reachable from remote SSH transport and zlib decompression buffers. The flaw stems from CryptoVec performing unchecked capacity growth, unchecked length arithmetic, and unsafe allocation/locking calls including NonNull::new_unchecked on potentially failed allocations, which can abort the process under memory pressure. Publicly available exploit code exists in the form of researcher-supplied PoC tests demonstrating both rejection on patched code and crash behavior on historical versions; no public exploit identified at time of analysis for active campaigns and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Arbitrary command execution in Fission's builder component (pkg:go/github.com/fission/fission <= 1.22.0) allows any principal with create or update privileges on Environment CRDs to redirect the builder pod to execute any binary reachable via $PATH inside the builder image. The vulnerable call site at pkg/builder/builder.go:254 passes the unsanitized Environment.spec.builder.command value directly to exec.Command after a strings.Fields split, enabling attackers to specify paths such as /bin/sh -c '...' as the build command. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the patch is confirmed released in v1.23.0 and the exploit primitive requires only a single Kubernetes API write to trigger.
Remote code execution in Concrete CMS versions 5.0 through 9.5.0 allows a high-privileged administrator to bypass the platform's `_fromCIF` deserialization guard by submitting malicious payloads through the REST API instead of standard form POST requests. The flaw resides in the ExpressEntryList block controller (CWE-502) and stores a serialized PHP gadget in the `filterFields` database column, which is unmarshalled when another administrator subsequently views or edits the block, leading to full server takeover. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not present in CISA KEV.
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. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Unsafe default code execution in InternLM LMDeploy (<=0.12.3) lets a malicious Hugging Face model repository run arbitrary Python on the host whenever a user loads it through any LMDeploy CLI (serve, calibrate, gptq, awq). The library hardcodes transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(..., trust_remote_code=True) in get_model_arch and related helpers with no flag, env var, or warning to opt out, overriding HF Transformers' default-secure stance. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and exploitation requires the user to load an untrusted repo, so risk is hardening-level rather than network-reachable RCE.
Two-layer blind SSRF in Crawlee for Python (pip/crawlee >= 1.0.0, < 1.7.0) allows an attacker who controls a sitemap or robots.txt file to force the crawler to issue HTTP requests against internal network services (layer 1, all HTTP clients), and - when CurlImpersonateHttpClient is configured - to dispatch non-HTTP scheme requests including gopher://, file://, dict://, and ftp:// (layer 2). The layer 2 escalation enables canonical Redis exploitation via gopher://, making RCE on unauthenticated internal Redis instances achievable from a public-facing crawler. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the researcher-credited advisory details a fully articulated attack path including Redis RCE.
Arbitrary code execution in InternLM lmdeploy <= 0.12.3 occurs because trust_remote_code=True is hardcoded across HuggingFace model-loading call sites in lmdeploy/archs.py and lmdeploy/utils.py. An attacker who can influence the model_path passed to an lmdeploy serving process can point it at a malicious HuggingFace repository, causing Transformers to download and execute attacker-controlled Python code with the privileges of the serving daemon. Publicly available exploit code exists in the GHSA advisory, and an upstream fix has been merged via PR #4511 (fixed in 0.13.0).
Path traversal in Mobile Verification Toolkit (MVT) pip/mvt versions through 2026.4.28 allows an adversary who delivers a crafted iOS backup to trigger arbitrary file writes or reads on the analyst's filesystem by embedding directory traversal sequences in fileID values within the backup's Manifest.db SQLite database. The decrypt-backup command can write attacker-controlled content to arbitrary writable paths - enabling shell profile modification or SSH key injection for code execution - while check-backup can read arbitrary host files into MVT's JSON and CSV forensic output. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; vendor-released patch v2026.5.12 is available.
Authenticated remote code execution affects Zoho ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus (before build 6525), DataSecurity Plus (before 6264), and RecoveryManager Plus (before 6313) on agent machines, stemming from a flaw in a bundled third-party dependency. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can inject commands (CWE-77) to execute arbitrary code on managed agent endpoints, with no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Catalog zone transfer failure in PowerDNS Authoritative can be triggered by a high-privileged remote attacker who injects insufficiently validated member zone data, causing the catalog zone transfer mechanism to abort and preventing secondary nameservers from receiving zone updates. The impact is a targeted denial-of-service against DNS zone replication infrastructure, affecting any deployment using catalog zones (RFC 9432). No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in FreeBSD via the ptrace(PT_SC_REMOTE) interface allows an unprivileged user with debug access to a process to trigger arbitrary kernel code execution by abusing improperly validated parameters in syscall(2) and __syscall(2) meta-system calls. Affected releases include FreeBSD 14.3, 14.4, and 15.0 prior to their respective patch levels, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.02%) but the CVSS base score of 8.4 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability once a foothold exists.
The setcred(2) system call is only available to privileged users. However, before the privilege level of the caller is checked, the user-supplied list of supplementary groups is copied into a fixed-size kernel stack buffer without first validating its length. If the supplied list exceeds the capacity of that buffer, a stack buffer overflow occurs. Because the bounds check on the supplementary groups list occurs after the kernel stack buffer has already been written, an unprivileged local user may trigger the overflow without holding any special privilege. Successful exploitation may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel, allowing an unprivileged local user to gain elevated privileges on the affected system.
Remote code execution in Honeywell Control Network Module (CNM) versions 100.1 through 110.2 allows authenticated high-privilege attackers to inject arbitrary OS commands through the device's web interface using command delimiters. The flaw carries a CVSS 9.1 rating due to scope change and full CIA impact, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the industrial-control context makes any RCE highly consequential. Honeywell has released a patch via its process.honeywell.com portal.
Unauthenticated remote code execution in the Avada Builder (fusion-builder) WordPress plugin versions up to and including 3.15.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary PHP on affected sites by abusing an unsanitized call_user_func() invocation reachable through a public AJAX endpoint. Wordfence-reported issue affects any WordPress site running the Avada theme stack that exposes a Post Cards or Table of Contents element on a public page, since the protecting nonce is deterministically leaked in the page's JavaScript. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 9.8 rating and trivial precondition (visiting one page that emits the nonce) make this high-priority.
Local privilege escalation in HP Linux Imaging and Printing Software (HPLIP) allows authenticated low-privileged users to execute arbitrary OS commands via command injection, potentially gaining elevated privileges on affected Linux hosts. The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.5 reflects high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability with low attack complexity, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Unauthenticated remote code execution in the ProSolution WP Client WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 2.0.0) allows attackers to upload malicious PHP files to a web-accessible directory by abusing an array validation mismatch in its upload handler. Because only the first file in a multi-file upload array is checked for extension and MIME type while the remaining files are processed unchecked, attackers can pair a benign first file with a PHP webshell to achieve full code execution on the host. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the high CVSS 9.8 score and trivially scriptable nature place this in the realistic mass-exploitation tier for WordPress plugins.
{attachmentId}/upload-modified-file to stage a file, then GET from /api/attachments/{attachmentId}/download to retrieve its contents - effectively turns the attachment system into an unauthenticated file disclosure proxy once the initial write is performed. The CVSS Changed scope (S:C) reflects that exposed materials such as SSH keys, database credentials, and application configs can cascade into compromise of co-hosted services well beyond Trilium itself. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
