YesWiki Remote Code Execution via Arbitrary PHP File Write and Execution
CVE-2025-46347GHSA-88xg-v53p-fpvf
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (yeswiki/yeswiki 4.5.4), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Summary An arbitrary file write can be used to write a file with a PHP extension, which then can be browsed to in order to execute arbitrary code on the server. All testing was performed on a local docker setup running the latest version of the application. PoC Proof of Concept Navigate to http://localhost:8085/?LookWiki which allows you to click Create a new Graphical configuration where you specify some parameters and then click Save. After clicking save, this request is made (most headers removed for clarity): This request writes the file test.css to disk with the contents (abbreviated) To exploit this, utilize a proxy tool to intercept the the first request and change the filename extension to .php and add arbitrary PHP code in for one of the request body parameters. e.g. primary-color=%3C%3Fphp+system%28%24GET%5B%27cmd%27%5D%29%3B+%3F%3E Now the file pizzapower.php is written to /var/www/html/custom/css-presets/pizzapower.php and it starts with this, where the PHP code is…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2025-46347 Advisory: YesWiki Remote Code Execution via Arbitrary PHP File Write and Execution IDs: CVE-2025-46347, GHSA-88xg-v53p-fpvf Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2025-46347 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:33 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: High (CVSS 7.4) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: yeswiki/yeswiki 4.5.4. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - Packagist yeswiki/yeswiki: affected <= 4.5.3; fixed in 4.5.4 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - Packagist yeswiki/yeswiki: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on yeswiki/yeswiki. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-88xg-v53p-fpvf (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-88xg-v53p-fpvf lists affected ranges: Packagist yeswiki/yeswiki >=0 <=4.5.3) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
