CVE-2026-9559 Details
Description
A path traversal vulnerability exists in the campaign import feature of Mautic 7. When extracting uploaded ZIP files during campaign imports, a flaw in the validation logic allows file paths to escape the intended temporary directories. An authenticated user with campaign import privileges (campaign:imports:create) can write arbitrary PHP files to sensitive system directories. An attacker can exploit this to overwrite critical internal configuration or cache components, resulting in Remote Code Execution (RCE) under the context of the web server user.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in the campaign import feature of Mautic version 7. This vulnerability arises when the application extracts uploaded ZIP files during the import process. A flaw in the validation logic permits file paths to escape the designated temporary directories. As a result, an authenticated user with campaign import privileges can write arbitrary PHP files to sensitive system directories. This exploitation could overwrite critical internal configuration or cache components, leading to remote code execution under the context of the web server user.
Users can upgrade to Mautic version 7.1.2 to address this vulnerability. For those unable to upgrade, it is recommended to revoke campaign import permissions from non-administrative users.
