Drupal CODER Module Remote Command Execution

This module exploits a Remote Command Execution vulnerability in Drupal CODER Module. Unauthenticated users can execute arbitrary command under the context of the web server user. CODER module doesn't sufficiently validate user inputs in a script file that has the php extension. A malicious unauthenticated user can make requests directly to this file to execute arbitrary command. The module does not need to be enabled for this to be exploited. This module was tested against CODER 2.5 with Drupal 7.5 installation on Ubuntu server.

Mitigation:

Validate user inputs in a script file that has the php extension.
