CVE-2018-19290 describes a command injection vulnerability in Budabot versions 0.6 through 4.0, specifically within the HELPBOT_MODULE. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the PHP daemon due to insufficient syntax validation of crafted commands, such as "!calc 5 x 5".
