CVE-2026-70554 Details
Description
MaxSite CMS contains a PHP object injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing attacker-controlled serialized data in the maxsite_comuser cookie directly to unserialize() without validation or class allowlisting. Attackers can craft a malicious serialized PHP object payload delivered in a single HTTP request to trigger magic methods during object graph reconstruction, enabling property-oriented programming attacks or remote code execution via available gadget chains such as those targeting SoapClient or Imagick extensions.
A PHP object injection vulnerability has been identified in MaxSite CMS versions 0.78 through 109.5. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending serialized data in the maxsite_comuser cookie. The data is passed to the unserialize() function without proper validation or class allowlisting. Exploitation involves triggering magic methods during the deserialization process, which can lead to property-oriented programming attacks or remote code execution, particularly through available gadget chains that exploit the SoapClient or Imagick extensions.
Users are advised to update MaxSite CMS to version 109.6, which addresses this vulnerability. Instructions for updating are available on the MaxSite CMS website.
