phpBB3 Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution
This exploit allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable phpBB3 installation. The exploit works by exploiting a vulnerability in the Attachment Settings ACP page, which allows an attacker to upload a malicious ZIP file containing a malicious PHP script. The script is then executed when the server attempts to unzip the file.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of phpBB3 and apply all security patches.
