Overview
craftcms/cms is a content management system.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection via the /updater/restore-db endpoint. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by crafting a malicious request after obtaining a compromised security key and creating an arbitrary file in the /storage/backups directory.
