Other vulnerabilities in DedeCMS
See all- CVE-2017-17727High
DedeCMS through 5.6 allows arbitrary file upload and PHP code execution by embedding the PHP code in a .jpg file, which is used in the templet parameter to member/article_edit.php.
- CVE-2021-48016Critical

- CVE-2026-38615Critical
A command execution vulnerability in DedeCMS V5.7.118 in file_manage_control.php allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the server.
- CVE-2023-34842Critical
Remote Code Execution vulnerability in DedeCMS through version 5.7.109 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted POST request to /dede/tpl.php.
- CVE-2023-37839Critical
DedeCMS v5.7.109 has an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in /dede/file_manage_control.php that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a crafted PHP file.
