CVE-2024-7094: CWE-94 Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in rabilal JS Help Desk – AI-Powered Support & Ticketing System
The JS Help Desk – The Ultimate Help Desk & Support Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Code Injection leading to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.6 via the 'storeTheme' function. This is due to a lack of sanitization on user-supplied values, which replace values in the style.php file, along with missing capability checks. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server. This issue was partially patched in 2.8.6 when the code injection issue was resolved, and fully patched in 2.8.7 when the missing authorization and cross-site request forgery protection was added. CVE-2024-43274 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-7094 is a critical PHP code injection vulnerability in the JS Help Desk WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to 2.8.6. The flaw arises from unsanitized user input in the 'storeTheme' function that modifies the style.php file, combined with missing authorization checks, enabling unauthenticated remote code execution. Partial remediation occurred in version 2.8.6 by addressing the code injection, with a complete fix in 2.8.7 adding missing authorization and CSRF protections. CVE-2024-43274 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server hosting the vulnerable plugin, leading to full compromise of the affected WordPress site. This includes complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss as reflected by the CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).
Mitigation Recommendations
Users should upgrade the JS Help Desk plugin to version 2.8.7 or later, where the vulnerability is fully patched with proper authorization and CSRF protections. Versions 2.8.6 and earlier are vulnerable. No other mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory. Patch status is confirmed by the plugin's version history and advisory details.
