CVE-2026-103535 Details
Description
Thelia v2.6.1 contains path traversal and PHP code injection vulnerabilities in its translation editor that can be chained to achieve remote code execution. The `item_name` parameter, used to build the translation file's write path, does not sanitize directory traversal sequences such as `../`. This enables an authenticated user with `UPDATE`-level permissions on `admin.configuration.language` to write files outside the expected `templates/` directory, including to web‑accessible paths. Separately, the translation‑writing logic does not escape `\` in user‑supplied values, allowing inputs to break out of the PHP string literal and inject executable code into the translation file. Chained together, these flaws allow a malicious PHP file to be written to a web-accessible path and executed with the web‑server’s privileges.
A vulnerability in Thelia version 2.6.1's translation editor allows for path traversal and PHP code injection, which can be combined to achieve remote code execution. The issue arises because the 'item_name' parameter, used to determine the write path for translation files, does not properly sanitize directory traversal sequences. This flaw enables an authenticated user with 'UPDATE' permissions on 'admin.configuration.language' to write files outside the designated 'templates/' directory, including into web-accessible areas. Additionally, the translation-writing process fails to escape backslashes in user-provided values, permitting inputs to escape PHP string literals and inject executable code into the translation files. When these vulnerabilities are exploited together, they allow a malicious PHP file to be written to a web-accessible location and executed with the privileges of the web server.
