Worst Case
Complete system compromise with attacker gaining full control over the server, allowing data theft, malware deployment, and lateral movement within the network.
Likely Case
Unauthorized file system access leading to data exfiltration, website defacement, or installation of backdoors for persistent access.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper input validation and file system permissions preventing code execution, though some information disclosure may still occur.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation does not require user interaction but has high attack complexity according to the advisory.
