Description

An issue in the cms_rest.php component of SIGB PMB v8.0.1.14 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unserializing an arbitrary file.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

Remediating the deserialization flaw in cms_rest.php via timely patching directly eliminates the arbitrary code execution vulnerability.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Validating and sanitizing inputs to cms_rest.php prevents untrusted serialized data from being processed and triggering code execution.

SI-16 Memory Protection partial match
prevent

Memory protection mechanisms like ASLR and DEP mitigate arbitrary code execution even if deserialization occurs.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2025-61168 is a critical vulnerability in the cms_rest.php component of SIGB PMB version 8.0.1.14. The issue stems from improper handling of unserialization, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code by unserializing a maliciously crafted file. It is classified under CWE-502 (Deserialization of Untrusted Data) and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), reflecting its high severity due to network accessibility and comprehensive impact.

Remote attackers require no authentication, privileges, or user interaction to exploit this flaw over the network with low attack complexity. Successful exploitation enables full arbitrary code execution on the server, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability with unchanged scope.

Advisories and patch information are detailed in the SIGB PMB changelog at https://forge.sigb.net/projects/pmb/wiki/Changelog_801#S%C3%A9curit%C3%A9-2, with additional references at http://pmb.com, http://sigb.com, and a GitHub Gist at https://gist.github.com/ZanyMonk/446f6875a2ceb3decef5ff1176428f9e providing exploit analysis or related details.
