Integrity: None
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 9 Dec 2024
Detectable: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-46547, organizations should immediately restrict access to the PHP Info Page within Wampserver environments. This can be achieved by configuring web server access controls to limit access to trusted IP addresses or internal networks only. Disabling or removing the PHP Info Page entirely in production or publicly accessible environments is strongly recommended. Network-level protections such as firewalls or VPNs should be employed to prevent unauthorized external access to development servers running Wampserver. Monitoring and logging access to sensitive diagnostic pages can help detect potential exploitation attempts. Until an official patch is released, consider isolating Wampserver instances from the internet and applying strict user authentication mechanisms where possible. Regularly review and update Wampserver installations and subscribe to vendor advisories to apply patches promptly once available. Additionally, educate developers and system administrators about the risks of exposing diagnostic information and enforce secure development environment practices.

Description

A vulnerability was found in Romain Bourdon Wampserver all versions (discovered in v3.2.3 and v3.2.6) where unauthorized users could access sensitive information due to improper access control validation via PHP Info Page. This issue can lead to data leaks.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-46547 is unauthorized disclosure of sensitive configuration and environment information from Wampserver installations. This can lead to increased risk of targeted attacks, such as privilege escalation, code injection, or lateral movement within affected networks. Organizations relying on Wampserver for local or development web environments may inadvertently expose internal system details, increasing their attack surface. Although the vulnerability does not directly affect system integrity or availability, the leaked information can be leveraged by attackers to craft more effective exploits or gain unauthorized access. This risk is particularly acute for organizations with weak network segmentation or those exposing development environments to untrusted networks. The lack of authentication and user interaction requirements makes exploitation straightforward, increasing the likelihood of successful attacks if the vulnerable PHP Info Page is accessible externally. Overall, the vulnerability poses a significant confidentiality risk that could facilitate broader compromise in affected environments.

Class weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighOWASP Top 10 A05:2025: Injection (opens in a new tab)
The product prepares a structured message for communication with another component, but encoding or escaping of the data is either missing or done incorrectly. As a result, the intended structure of the message is not preserved.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Architecture and Design · Parameterization
If available, use structured mechanisms that automatically enforce the separation between data and code. These mechanisms may be able to provide the relevant quoting, encoding, and validation automatically, instead of relying on the developer to provide this capability at every point where output is generated.
Architecture and Design · Implementation
Understand the context in which your data will be used and the encoding that will be expected. This is especially important when transmitting data between different components, or when generating outputs that can contain multiple encodings at the same time, such as web pages or multi-part mail messages.
