GHSA-pc6r-ch59-5926
Control Web Panel versions before 0.9.8.1225 contain a blind SQL injection vulnerability in the userRes POST parameter at the user endpoint. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries. Exploitation can lead to MySQL root privilege escalation, enabling attackers to write arbitrary files such as a PHP webshell to the web-accessible roundcube logs directory, resulting in remote code execution as the cwpsvc account.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
A blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in Control Web Panel prior to version 0.9.8.1225. Attackers can submit unsanitized input via the userRes POST parameter at the user endpoint to execute arbitrary SQL queries without authentication. Leveraging MySQL root privileges obtained through this injection, attackers can write files using INTO DUMPFILE, including deploying a PHP webshell to the roundcube logs directory accessible via the web. This leads to remote code execution under the cwpsvc account.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands, escalate privileges to MySQL root, write arbitrary files to the server, and achieve remote code execution as the cwpsvc user. This compromises 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 an official fix is available, restrict access to the affected endpoints and monitor for suspicious activity related to SQL injection attempts. Avoid exposing the Control Web Panel interface to untrusted networks.
