Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2021-47751 exists.\n\nAffected product: Phphtmledit CuteEditor. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47751/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47751/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-47751","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47751/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-47751","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7jgq-pvpg-hqwq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PHP Rich Text Editor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in CuteEditor for PHP to write arbitrary files to the web root, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"rich_text_editor","vendor":"phphtmledit"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"CuteEditor for PHP (now referred to as Rich Text Editor) 6.6 contains a directory traversal vulnerability in the browse template feature that allows attackers to write files to arbitrary web root directories.
