High CVSS 8.6
CVE-2026-53691
An Unrestricted File Upload vulnerability in Redeight CMS version 1.0 allows authenticated attackers to achieve Remote Code Execution via the POST "/admin/index.php?module=pages&mode=FileAdd" endpoint. The application fails to validate file extensions and MIME types, permitting the upload of arbitrary PHP scripts to the publicly accessible "/uploads/files/" directory where they can be executed directly by the web server.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network and without authentication — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- Upload accepts a dangerous file type, often one the server will execute.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
