CVE-2026-38329: n/a
Bludit CMS versions before 3.18.4 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the API Plugin. The vulnerability exists because the POST /api/files/{key} endpoint does not perform authorization checks and lacks file extension validation. This allows an attacker with a valid API token to upload a malicious PHP script and execute arbitrary code on the server.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-38329 describes a remote code execution vulnerability in Bludit CMS prior to version 3.18.4. The issue arises in the API Plugin's file upload endpoint (POST /api/files/{key} in bl-plugins/api/plugin.php), which fails to enforce authorization checks and does not validate file extensions. Consequently, an attacker possessing a valid API token can upload malicious PHP scripts, leading to arbitrary code execution on the affected server.
Potential Impact
An attacker with a valid API token can exploit this vulnerability to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server hosting Bludit CMS. This can lead to full compromise of the server, unauthorized access, data theft, or further attacks within the network.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict API token distribution and monitor API usage closely to prevent unauthorized file uploads. Avoid exposing the API endpoint to untrusted networks.
