Summary
Emlog is an open source website building system. emlog v2.6.1 and earlier exposes a REST API endpoint (/index.php?rest-api=upload) for media file uploads. The endpoint fails to implement proper validation of file types, extensions, and content, allowing authenticated attackers (with a valid API key or admin session cookie) to upload arbitrary files (including malicious PHP scripts) to the server. An attacker can obtain the API key either by gaining administrator access to enable the REST API setting, or via information disclosure vulnerabilities in the application. Once uploaded, the malicious PHP file can be executed to gain remote code execution (RCE) on the target server, leading to full server compromise.

"value": "Emlog es un sistema de creaci\u00f3n de sitios web de c\u00f3digo abierto. emlog v2.6.1 y versiones anteriores expone un endpoint de API REST (/index.php?rest-api=upload) para la carga de archivos multimedia. El endpoint no implementa una validaci\u00f3n adecuada de tipos de archivo, extensiones y contenido, permitiendo a atacantes autenticados (con una clave API v\u00e1lida o una cookie de sesi\u00f3n de administrador) cargar archivos arbitrarios (incluidos scripts PHP maliciosos) al servidor. Un atacante puede obtener la clave API ya sea obteniendo acceso de administrador para habilitar la configuraci\u00f3n de la API REST, o a trav\u00e9s de vulnerabilidades de revelaci\u00f3n de informaci\u00f3n en la aplicaci\u00f3n. Una vez cargado, el archivo PHP malicioso puede ser ejecutado para obtener ejecuci\u00f3n remota de c\u00f3digo (RCE) en el servidor objetivo, lo que lleva a un compromiso total del servidor."
