CVE-2026-41228
Published:April 23, 2026
Updated:April 26, 2026
Froxlor is open source server administration software. Prior to version 2.3.6, the Froxlor API endpoint "Customers.update" (and "Admins.update") does not validate the "def_language" parameter against the list of available language files. An authenticated customer can set "def_language" to a path traversal payload (e.g., "../../../../../var/customers/webs/customer1/evil"), which is stored in the database. On subsequent requests, "Language::loadLanguage()" constructs a file path using this value and executes it via "require", achieving arbitrary PHP code execution as the web server user. Version 2.3.6 fixes the issue.
