CVE-2026-1331 is an Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability (CWE-434) affecting MeetingHub, a product developed by HAMASTAR Technology. Published on 2026-01-22, the flaw has 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), marking it as critical. It enables unauthenticated remote attackers to upload web shell backdoors and execute arbitrary code on the server.

Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low attack complexity, no required privileges, and no user interaction. Exploitation allows attackers to upload and execute malicious web shells, achieving arbitrary code execution on the server and resulting in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Advisories from TWCERT provide details on this vulnerability, available at https://www.twcert.org.tw/en/cp-139-10651-ff09c-2.html and https://www.twcert.org.tw/tw/cp-132-10650-a5ee9-1.html. Security practitioners should review these references for recommended mitigations and patches.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-3 Malicious Code Protection good match

Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.

CM-7 Least Functionality partial match

Least functionality restricts the file types and automatic processing capabilities the system will accept.

SC-18 Mobile Code partial match

Mobile-code controls define, authorize, and block unacceptable uploaded code before automatic processing occurs.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.PS-05 mostly match
prevents

Restricting execution of unauthorized software directly blocks dangerous uploaded files from running.

PR.PS-01 partial match
prevents

Hardened configuration baselines can enforce allowed file types and processing rules.

PR.PS-06 partial match
prevents

Secure development practices include input validation and file-type restrictions that prevent this weakness.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Configuration and acceptance testing verify that file-upload handling enforces allowed types and does not permit dangerous content to be stored or executed.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure-coding guidelines and security testing explicitly address restrictions on allowed file types and upload handling, reducing the risk that dangerous file uploads are accepted without validation.

A.8.30 Outsourced development partial match
prevents

Mandated testing for malicious content and known vulnerabilities reduces the likelihood that an outsourced component will contain or accept dangerous file types that could later be uploaded or executed.

A.8.7 Protection against malware partial match
mitigates

Application allow-listing and pre-use scanning of received files directly blocks the introduction of executable content that has not been vetted, eliminating the primary vector for unrestricted dangerous file uploads.
