Impact
A flaw in the admin/add_logs.php script of cak-filemanagement-system corresponds to a CWE-434 (Unrestricted File Upload) and a CWE-284 (Improper Access Control) weakness. The attacker can invoke move_uploaded_file with an arbitrary file path, allowing unrestricted upload. The vulnerability is exploitable from a remote location and can be used to place malicious files on the server. If the uploaded file contains executable code, the attacker could gain code execution or elevate privileges, threatening confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects the cak‑filemanagement‑system, versions up to commit 5e6433246475e66462e1fea980688de96a049297. Users of earlier releases that have not applied this patch are susceptible.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS v3 score of 6.9 indicates a moderate impact and medium‑to‑high risk. EPSS data is not available, so the current likelihood of exploitation is unknown. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting no confirmed exploit activity yet, but the issuer’s public disclosure indicates that an attacker can use the flaw.
