CWE-94Published: August 22, 2024· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
SeaCMS 13.0 has a remote code execution vulnerability. The reason for this vulnerability is that although admin_files.php imposes restrictions on edited files, attackers can still bypass these restrictions and write code, allowing authenticated attackers to exploit the vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands and gain system privileges.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-42599 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 8.8.
