Description
UnoPim before 2.1.5 contains an authenticated file upload vulnerability that allows authenticated administrators to upload arbitrary PHP files through the TinyMCE image upload endpoint due to missing file extension and MIME type validation. Attackers can upload a PHP web shell to the public storage disk and execute arbitrary operating system commands on the server by accessing the uploaded file at the URL returned in the server response.

AI Analysis

Impact

This vulnerability involves an authenticated administrator being able to upload arbitrary files through the TinyMCE image upload endpoint because the application does not validate the file extension or MIME type. An attacker can upload a PHP web shell to the public storage disk, then execute arbitrary operating system commands on the server by accessing the uploaded file at the URL returned in the response. The result is complete remote code execution on the server.

Affected Systems

The affected product is unopim, version 2.1.4 and earlier. The upgrade to version 2.1.5 or later includes the fix for the missing validation logic in the TinyMCE image upload endpoint.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.6, this flaw is considered high severity. The attack requires the attacker to possess authenticated administrator privileges, but the impact is catastrophic once accessed: arbitrary code execution on the web server. The EPSS score is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the combination of authentication requirement and high impact makes the risk significant for any environment running the affected versions.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the unopim installation to version 2.1.5 or later.
  • Restrict the TinyMCE image upload endpoint to allow only the approved file extensions and MIME types, and enforce validation on the server.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, place the upload directory outside the web root or configure it so that PHP execution is disabled, and disable image upload for non‑administrator accounts.
