Deeper analysisAI
CVE-2026-30643 is a code injection vulnerability (CWE-94) discovered in DedeCMS version 5.7.118, a content management system. The flaw allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying crafted setup tag values during a module upload process. It has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8, indicating critical severity due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, lack of required privileges or user interaction, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network without any prerequisites. By uploading a malicious module with specially crafted setup tags, they can achieve remote code execution on the affected DedeCMS server, potentially leading to full system compromise, data theft, modification, or disruption of services.
