An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-23698 exists.\n\nAffected product: Vtiger CRM. 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-2026-23698/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23698/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-23698","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23698/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-23698","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jf2j-jhvf-rc56"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vtiger CRM","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Administrators can upload malicious PHP files via module import to achieve remote code execution and install persistent web shells.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"Vtiger CRM through 8.4.0 contains an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the admin module import feature that allows administrator-level attackers to upload arbitrary PHP files by submitting a crafted zip archive through the ModuleManager import function, which extracts contents directly into the modules/ directory under the web root without validating file types beyond the manifest.xml descriptor. Attackers can place executable PHP files in the modules/ directory that become directly accessible via HTTP, bypassing Vtiger's authentication and authorization layer entirely since Apache resolves the path and invokes the PHP interpreter before the application routing layer is involved, resulting in a persistent web shell independent of the originating session.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-07-07","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-07-07T16:27:55Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/JivaSecurity/VTIGER-CRM-RCE-CVE-2026-23698","stars":0,"title":"Vtiger CRM 8.3.0, 8.4.0 Module Import Authenticated RCE PoC"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Vtiger CRM 8.4.0 Authenticated RCE via Module Import File Upload","id":"CVE-2026-23698","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in AP180(JA) V1.xx","id":"CVE-2026-23699"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Vtiger CRM \u003c 8.4.0 Authenticated File Upload RCE via Documents Module","id":"CVE-2026-23697"},"products":["Vtiger CRM"],"published":"2026-07-07","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-14","vendors":["Vtiger"]},"summary":"Administrators can upload malicious PHP files via module import to achieve remote code execution and install persistent web shells.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23698/"}
