34
FAUCET Score

CVE-2022-24977 is a critical remote code execution vulnerability affecting ImpressCMS versions prior to 1.4.2. It allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by exploiting a directory traversal flaw in the origName or imageName parameters, which then interacts unsafely with the CKEditor processImage.php script. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical) due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploit code or active exploitation has been observed, and community discussion is minimal, its high severity warrants immediate patching.
