CVE-2024-42640: Angular-Base64-Upload - Remote Code Execution

id: CVE-2024-42640

info:
  name: Angular-Base64-Upload - Remote Code Execution
  author: s4e-io
  severity: critical
  description: |
    angular-base64-upload prior to v0.1.21 is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution via demo/server.php. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to upload arbitrary content to the server, which can subsequently be accessed through demo/uploads. This leads to the execution of previously uploaded content and enables the attacker to achieve code execution on the server. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can upload arbitrary files and achieve remote code execution on the server.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade angular-base64-upload to version 0.1.21 or discontinue use as the product is no longer supported.
