AI-suggested
Users should upgrade to version 1.0.8.2 or later once available, as the vulnerability affects versions before 1.0.8.2. If you cannot patch yet, restrict media-upload permissions to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious file uploads.
Description
Vvveb before version 1.0.8.2 contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the media upload handler that allows authenticated users with media-upload permissions to bypass extension restrictions by uploading a .htaccess file to map .phtml extensions to the PHP handler. Attackers can upload a .phtml file containing arbitrary PHP code and execute the uploaded payload through a subsequent unauthenticated HTTP GET request to the uploaded file, resulting in remote code execution with web server privileges.
