Assigner: VulnCheck

Description
Project Pier 0.8.8 and earlier contains an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in tools/upload_file.php. The upload handler fails to validate the file type or enforce authentication, allowing remote attackers to upload malicious PHP files directly into a web-accessible directory. The uploaded file is stored with a predictable suffixΒ and can be executed by requesting its URL, resulting in remote code execution.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in Project Pier 0.8.8 and earlier, where an unauthenticated attacker can upload arbitrary files via tools/upload_file.php. The upload handler does not validate the file type or require authentication, allowing attackers to upload malicious PHP files into a web-accessible directory. These files have a predictable suffix and can be executed by accessing their URL, leading to remote code execution.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to upload and execute malicious PHP code on the affected server without authentication. This can lead to full remote code execution, allowing the attacker to take control of the server, steal data, modify or delete files, and potentially use the server as a pivot point for further attacks.
