| 7.0-8.9 | 10 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 3 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for php-fusion, sorted by severity first and recency.
Due to an out-of-date dependency in the “Fusion File Manager” component accessible through the admin panel, an attacker can send a crafted request that allows them to read the contents of files on the system accessible within the privileges of the running process. Additionally, they may write files to arbitrary locations, provided the files pass the application’s mime-type and file extension validation.
There is insufficient sanitization of tainted file names that are directly concatenated with a path that is subsequently passed to a ‘require_once’ statement. This allows arbitrary files with the ‘.php’ extension for which the absolute path is known to be included and executed. There are no known means in PHPFusion through which an attacker can upload and target a ‘.php’ file payload.
An issue in Php-Fusion v9.03.90 fixed in v9.10.00 allows authenticated attackers to cause a Distributed Denial of Service via the Polling feature.

CSRF + Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in search.php in PHPFusion 9.03.110 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML
PHPFusion version 9.03.90 is vulnerable to CSRF attack which leads to deletion of all shoutbox messages by the attacker on behalf of the logged in victim.
login.php in PHPFusion (aka PHP-Fusion) Andromeda 9.x before 2020-12-30 generates error messages that distinguish between incorrect username and incorrect password (i.e., not a single "Incorrect username or password" message in both cases), which might allow enumeration.
Privilege escalation in PHP-Fusion 9.03.50 downloads/downloads.php allows an authenticated user (not admin) to send a crafted request to the server and perform remote command execution (RCE).
PHP-Fusion 9.03.60 is affected by Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via infusions/member_poll_panel/poll_admin.php.

PHP-Fusion 9.03.50 allows SQL Injection because maincore.php has an insufficient protection mechanism. An attacker can develop a crafted payload that can be inserted into the sort_order GET parameter on the members.php members search page. This parameter allows for control over anything after the ORDER BY clause in the SQL query.
An XSS vulnerability exists in the banners.php page of PHP-Fusion 9.03.50. This can be exploited because the only security measure used against XSS is the stripping of SCRIPT tags. A malicious actor can use HTML event handlers to run JavaScript instead of using SCRIPT tags.
In PHP-Fusion 9.03.00, edit_profile.php allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code because includes/dynamics/includes/form_fileinput.php and includes/classes/PHPFusion/Installer/Lib/Core.settings.inc mishandle executable files during avatar upload.
