Remote Code Execution

other CRITICAL

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

Local code execution in Acer NitroSense v5 (versions up to and including 5.2.63) allows an attacker who already has shell access on the host to run arbitrary code in the privileged context of the application by connecting to an Electron/Chromium DevTools endpoint left enabled in the production build and bound to localhost TCP port 9993. No authentication or user interaction is required against that debug port, and the assessed CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects full confidentiality, integrity and availability impact once local access exists, but the exposure is confined to loopback and is therefore not remotely reachable. No public exploit code was identified and there is no CISA KEV listing at time of analysis; this is a moderate, locally-scoped risk rather than a remote emergency, and its main value to an attacker is as a privilege-escalation or persistence primitive on an already-compromised endpoint.

SQL injection in the third-party Socialwall course-format plugin for Moodle (versions 3.0 through 3.3) lets remote attackers inject crafted SQL through a plugin HTTP endpoint, granting high confidentiality and integrity impact on the Moodle database. The vendor-supplied CVSS of 9.8 assumes no authentication, but our assessment lowers this to a PR:L vector (CVSS 3.1: AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, 8.8) because plugin endpoints in Moodle typically require a valid authenticated session - a limiting factor that remains unconfirmed from available metadata. Exploitation is not confirmed actively exploited (no CISA KEV listing), and while a public Medium write-up describes the SQLi, no public exploit code has been confirmed at time of analysis; note that the CVE description's claim of arbitrary code execution is broader than the assessed confidentiality/integrity-only impact.

Privilege escalation in GNU C Library (glibc) 2.14 through 2.44 stems from a TOCTOU race in ld.so when expanding $ORIGIN in DT_RPATH for setuid/setgid (AT_SECURE) programs. A local low-privileged (PR:L) attacker can exploit this only where fs.protected_hardlinks is disabled and a suitable setuid/setgid binary exists, by hard-linking the binary and winning a race to swap an intermediate path component for a symlink so the loader loads an attacker-controlled shared object with the program's elevated privileges. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; major Linux distributions enable fs.protected_hardlinks by default, sharply limiting exposure.

Heap memory corruption and denial of service in radare2 versions prior to 6.2.0 occur when the CPython .pyc marshal parser processes a crafted bytecode file that declares a string length of 0xffffffff, wrapping the size-plus-one allocation to zero before attacker-controlled data and fill bytes are written past the heap buffer. Exploitation is local and requires user interaction - an analyst must open or inspect the malicious .pyc with r2 or rabin2 - and no privileges are needed per the CVSS vector (AV:L/PR:N/UI:R), with impact confined to corrupting or crashing the analysis process. Arbitrary code execution is possible in principle but has not been demonstrated, no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the 5.5 CVSS score reflects a genuinely low-priority issue for most environments.

Code injection in mtrano APENCMS (rolling release, all builds up to commit 6546096d354153309693efabb9a0d824628ed4f5) lets a remote attacker who already holds high-privilege template or site administration access reach a PHP eval() call in cms/weasel.php through the $_CMS['site'] argument and execute arbitrary code on the server. Publicly available exploit code exists, while the vendor was contacted and did not respond, so no fixed build and no published version boundaries are available. The CNA's CVSS 4.0 base score of 1.9 (Low, all impacts rated VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) understates the technical severity: with attacker-controlled input flowing into eval(), successful exploitation is effectively full server-side code execution, and the attacker must already control the template/site variable (PR:H), consistent with template or site administrator rights rather than an unauthenticated default-configuration attack.

Authenticated file deletion via directory traversal in the CTX Feed (Product Feed Manager for WooCommerce - 220+ Shopping & Social Channels) WordPress plugin affects all versions up to and including 6.6.43: a user holding shop-manager capability or above can abuse the 'provider' parameter to walk out of the intended feed directory and force an unlink() against files whose extensions match the plugin's own whitelist (csv, xml, tsv, xls, xlsx, json, txt). Exploitation is a deliberate two-call REST sequence - first POST to /wp-json/ctxfeed/v1/make_feed/save_feed_config to persist the traversal string in wp_options, then a call to /wp-json/ctxfeed/v1/manage_feeds/delete_feed to trigger the deletion - so there is no unauthenticated path and no victim interaction beyond the attacker's own privileged session. Our independent assessment rates this a moderate, not high-priority, issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L); the frequently repeated 'leads to RCE' framing is sharply constrained because .php files such as wp-config.php cannot be deleted, and no public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis.

Local privilege escalation in WatchDog Anti-Virus 1.8.640 on Windows lets an unprivileged local user redirect the quarantine restoration workflow so a quarantined file is written to an attacker-chosen filesystem location, by planting an NTFS directory junction at the file's original path before an administrator triggers a restore. The defect is root-caused as improper link resolution before file access (CWE-59); the vector requires local access (PR:L in the CVSS 4.0 vector) and an administrator actively performing the restore (UI:A), so the privileged write cannot be triggered by the attacker alone. Successful exploitation can overwrite protected files and, with a well-chosen target path, support DLL hijacking for SYSTEM-level code execution, but there is no indication of active exploitation, no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis; this is treated as a genuine but conditional local privilege-escalation issue rather than an urgent remote threat.

Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload in the Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin (versions 3.2.4 through before 3.5.51) lets a remote attacker place a file with an attacker-chosen name and extension at a predictable public path inside the WordPress site. On hosts running the default Debian/Ubuntu Apache PHP package configuration, where .phar is mapped to the PHP handler alongside .php and .phtml, that uploaded file is interpreted and the issue escalates to remote code execution and full site takeover; on hosts that route only .php to PHP, the file is served inert from the site's own origin, degrading the outcome to stored cross-site scripting. No authentication, user interaction, or special access is required (our assessed vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), publicly available exploit code exists, and the RCE path is immediate on affected Apache/mod_php stacks - which is why our independent assessment rates real-world severity above the vendor-assigned CVSS 6.5.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI/sysfs: Add lockdown checks to legacy I/O and memory handlers Currently, the legacy I/O and memory sysfs handlers do not check security_locked_down(LOCKDOWN_PCI_ACCESS), leaving the legacy_io and legacy_mem files unprotected when the kernel is locked down. Commit eb627e17727e ("PCI: Lock down BAR access when the kernel is locked down") added the check to pci_write_config(), pci_mmap_resource(), and pci_write_resource_io() to prevent userspace from programming DMA-capable hardware that could be used to modify kernel code, but did not cover the legacy handlers. As a result, root can still write arbitrary I/O ports and map the legacy I/O and memory spaces while the kernel is locked down, which is the same capability the lockdown is meant to remove. Add the same check to pci_write_legacy_io(), pci_mmap_legacy_mem(), and pci_mmap_legacy_io(). These generic handlers cover both architectures that define HAVE_PCI_LEGACY (such as Alpha and PowerPC).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: act_ife: Only operate on Ethernet frames act_ife encapsulates/decapsulates the original Ethernet header and uses skb->dev->hard_header_len as the length of that header. That is only correct for Ethernet devices: on a device where hard_header_len does not match the L2 header that was actually pulled (PPP reports PPP_HDRLEN while nothing is stripped on ingress), the ingress skb_push()/skb_pull() use the wrong length and can hit skb_under_panic when headroom is tight. IFE is Ethernet-only by design - it builds an outer ethhdr, rewrites h_source/h_dest/h_proto, and calls eth_type_trans() on decode - so instead of trying to make the offsets work for arbitrary link types, simply drop packets that do not carry an Ethernet header. Checking skb->dev->type alone is not enough. We have to cater for a corner case where mirred can redirect an skb from a non-Ethernet device to an Ethernet one, and skb->dev then says nothing about the framing the skb actually has: an skb redirected from ppp0 reaches the target's ingress hook with mac_len 0 and no Ethernet header at all. So at ingress also require mac_len to be ETH_HLEN. On egress mac_len is not maintained, so the device type is all we have; a bogus redirect there yields a malformed frame rather than an out-of-bounds push, and it would be malformed with or without IFE. That corner case is not theoretical - redirecting from ppp0 into a veth that has an ife encode action on its ingress hook panics without this patch: skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:98 put:14 head:ffff88800e410000 data:ffff88800e40fff5 tail:0x57 end:0x640 dev:veth3 kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:214!

PHP object injection in October CMS (composer package october/system) allows an attacker-controlled serialized payload stored in a widget session key to be passed to unserialize() without an allowed_classes restriction, enabling instantiation of arbitrary classes and reachable gadget chains — potentially yielding PHP code execution as the web server user. The flaw is reachable only when the niche opt-in cms.safe_mode setting is enabled and a backend user with CMS markup editing access is not fully trusted, so standard production installations with Safe Mode off are not exposed. Public proof-of-concept code exists and vendor patches ship in 3.7.17 and 4.2.x; exploitation is not confirmed in CISA KEV, and the vendor's own CVSS score (3.3) is far below what the stated code-execution impact would normally imply.

Apache Syncope contains a Groovy sandbox bypass (CWE-94 code injection) that lets an administrator holding entitlements over the Implementations console register a malicious Groovy Command class whose untrusted code executes in a static CommandArgs initializer, escaping the intended script sandbox. Affected releases span 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, 4.0.0-M0 through 4.0.7, and 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2; exploitation requires a privileged, already-authenticated administrator account (CVSS 3.1 vector PR:H, score 6.5) rather than an anonymous attacker. There is no public exploit identified and the vulnerability is not in CISA KEV, but because Syncope is an identity governance and provisioning platform, successful abuse yields high confidentiality and integrity impact over managed identity data - CISA's SSVC assessment rates technical impact as 'total' while noting exploitation has not been observed and the attack is not automatable.

Integer overflow in U-Boot's SquashFS filesystem parser (fs/squashfs/sqfs.c, function sqfs_concat_tokens) enables heap under-allocation followed by a heap-based buffer overflow via strcpy() when a crafted SquashFS image with manipulated token lists is processed during boot. All U-Boot releases through v2026.01-rc4 are affected. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis; a confirmed fix is available in v2026.04-rc1 (commit adccdb2).

Zephyr RTOS's WireGuard VPN receive handler in wg_process_data_message() commits permanent peer-state mutations - endpoint roaming update, liveness timer refresh, and keypair promotion - before validating the anti-replay counter, allowing an on-path attacker who captures a single valid encrypted datagram to replay it from a spoofed source address and hijack the tunnel endpoint. Because AEAD decryption succeeds for any authentic ciphertext regardless of freshness, the spoofed replay is processed as legitimate and irreversibly alters peer state before the replay check fires and returns -EINVAL. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; patch is available via upstream commit 260c32ef.

Reflected JSON injection in PrivateBin v2.0.4 and earlier allows remote unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary key/value pairs into JSON-LD API responses served at the /?jsonld= endpoint. PHP's FILTER_SANITIZE_URL passes double-quote characters through unmodified into JSON template construction via str_replace(), breaking out of the JSON string context and reflecting attacker-controlled fields. The vulnerable response path additionally omits X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff while setting Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, enabling any cross-origin structured-data consumer to read the manipulated output. No public exploit or KEV listing exists, though the advisory includes a dynamically verified proof-of-concept on v2.0.4.

Memory corruption in the TP-Link TL-WR841N v14 embedded HTTP service allows an unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access to trigger a buffer overflow by submitting a crafted multipart/form-data request containing an oversized boundary parameter. The confirmed impact is limited to undefined application behavior resulting from process memory corruption; TP-Link's own advisory and the CVE description both explicitly state that arbitrary code execution, information disclosure, and denial-of-service have not been demonstrated, despite those labels appearing in the CVE tags. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

Archive symlink traversal in aquaproj/aqua prior to v2.60.1 enables an attacker who controls a tool archive to write arbitrary files outside the extraction directory with the privileges of the user running aqua. The vulnerable combination in `pkg/unarchive/archives.go` - creating a symlink without destination validation, then following it with a regular file write - allows a malicious tar.gz to overwrite files such as shell startup scripts or PATH entries, resulting in user-level code execution. A working PoC is confirmed in GHSA-mf5c-hw34-4hpp; no CISA KEV listing is present and EPSS data is unavailable for this CVE.

Out-of-bounds memory write in libsolv crashes RPM-based package manager tools (dnf, yum, zypper) when processing a corrupted or specially crafted .solv repository cache file. The root cause is an absent array-index bounds check on directory-id values read from compressed filelist data during .solv file rewriting - but because the out-of-bounds write stores only a fixed, non-attacker-controlled value, the vendor explicitly rules out arbitrary code execution, confining impact to denial of service. No public exploit has been identified and no active exploitation is confirmed; note that the 'RCE' metadata tag conflicts directly with the description and appears to be erroneous.

Memory corruption via out-of-bounds write in OX Dovecot Pro and OX Dovecot CE's ManageSieve service allows authenticated network attackers to crash the ManageSieve process, denying all users the ability to remotely manage Sieve email filter scripts. The root cause is improper handling of extreme numeric literals during Sieve script compilation. The vendor notes that remote code execution may theoretically be achievable via the same memory corruption primitive, though no public exploit demonstrates this; no public exploits are known and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

Heap buffer overflow in FFmpeg's TDSC screen-capture codec decoder exposes Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI 3 and OpenShift AI deployments to denial of service or potential arbitrary code execution. The tdsc_load_cursor() function performs erroneous stride-based pointer arithmetic in two locations when rendering cursor data from crafted TDSC video, writing past a heap-allocated buffer boundary. No public exploit or active exploitation has been confirmed at time of analysis, and the upstream fix is available as FFmpeg commit 242ff799c.

Unauthenticated remote PHP function invocation in the Tutor LMS WordPress plugin (all versions up to and including 4.0.5) allows any internet-accessible attacker to call arbitrary zero-argument PHP functions server-side via a missing-authorization AJAX handler combined with extract()-based variable injection into a template scope. The most critical demonstrated impact is persistent subscriber-level account creation through WordPress core's edit_user() function, which reads POST parameters directly, enabling unauthenticated user registration on any affected site. No CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but Wordfence's detailed technical disclosure with specific file paths and line numbers substantially lowers the barrier for independent exploit development against the 6.5 CVSS-rated but trivially accessible unauthenticated attack surface.

Cross-site scripting via `javascript:` URI injection in Omeka S 4.2.0 allows an attacker who controls site navigation configuration to plant a malicious custom URL that executes arbitrary JavaScript in any visitor's browser when the navigation link is clicked. The flaw resides in the `Url.php` navigation link handler, which failed to reject URLs using the `javascript:` scheme. A researcher-published writeup exists, but no confirmed active exploitation or CISA KEV listing is present at time of analysis.

Cleartext cluster key disclosure in Wazuh 4.14.0-4.14.6 allows any low-privilege API user with the default readonly or cluster_readonly role to retrieve the shared secret that authenticates and encrypts all inter-node cluster traffic. The GET /cluster/local/config endpoint was missing the mask_sensitive_config decorator applied to every sibling config endpoint, causing the cluster.key field to be returned unredacted to accounts that are explicitly denied update-config permission. The severity of this information disclosure is amplified by prior Wazuh advisories that establish cluster-peer remote code execution chains contingent on possessing the cluster key, making this a practical stepping stone to full cluster compromise. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog.

Reflected XSS in Netron desktop application versions 9.1.2 and earlier enables arbitrary JavaScript execution within the Electron/Chromium renderer by injecting payloads into unsanitized model node names, types, and attribute descriptions. Reported by HiddenLayer, the vulnerability allows an attacker who can deliver a crafted ML model file to hide graph nodes, conduct local network port scanning, and - when chained with a Chrome n-day exploit - escalate to full Remote Code Execution on the victim's machine. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the CVE is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Reflected XSS in Netron ≤9.1.2 desktop application executes attacker-controlled JavaScript when a user opens a specially crafted ML model file containing malicious node names, descriptions, or type labels. Because Netron is Electron-based, XSS runs in a privileged Chromium renderer context - enabling SSRF-style local port scanning and, when chained with an unspecified Chrome n-day vulnerability, potential remote code execution on the host. No public exploit confirmed at time of analysis, but HiddenLayer published a security advisory documenting the impact chain.

Arbitrary code execution across entire WordPress multisite networks is possible in the Defender Security plugin (versions 5.0.0 through 6.1.x) due to a missing access control check on a network-wide setting. Any site-level administrator on a multisite installation - a role with significantly lower trust than a network/super administrator - can modify this setting to inject and execute code affecting all sites on the network. No public exploit has been identified and EPSS stands at 0.17% (6th percentile), but SSVC rates technical impact as 'total', consistent with the network-wide RCE consequence if exploited by a malicious or compromised site admin.
