CVE-2026-14946: CWE-434 Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type in Frauscher Sensortechnik FDS 102
A high privileged remote attacker can upload a .php file and then request it directly from /uploads/<filename>.php to achieve arbitrary code execution due to improper file type validation which could result in full system compromise.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CWE-434) in Frauscher Sensortechnik FDS 102 version 2.8.0 involves unrestricted upload of files with dangerous types. A high privileged remote attacker can upload a malicious .php file because the product does not properly validate file types during upload. The attacker can then access the uploaded .php file directly via the /uploads/ directory, resulting in arbitrary code execution on the system.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker with high privileges to execute arbitrary code remotely, which could lead to full system compromise. This poses a significant risk to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict high privileged user access and monitor file upload functionality closely to prevent unauthorized uploads of executable files.
