Last modified

CVE-2023-24676 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.2/10 on the CVSS scale. An issue found in ProcessWire 3.0.210 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code and install a reverse shell via the download_zip_url parameter when installing a new module. NOTE: this is disputed because exploitation requires that the attacker is able to enter requests as an admin; however, a ProcessWire admin is intentionally allowed to install any module that contains any arbitrary code.. EPSS estimates a 1.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
