CVE-2022-33941 is a critical command injection vulnerability in the XMLRPC API of Alfasado PowerCMS, affecting versions 6.021 and earlier, 5.21 and earlier, and 4.51 and earlier, including all unsupported PowerCMS 3 Series and older. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a specially crafted POST message, leading to arbitrary Perl script execution and subsequent arbitrary OS command execution. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical), this vulnerability has a network attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploit intelligence (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) or KEV entry exists, and community discussion and media coverage are minimal, the high FAUCET Risk Score of 85/100 indicates significant potential risk.
