CVE-2025-0328
📋 TL;DR
This critical vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on KaiYuanTong ECT Platform servers through command injection in the /public/server/runCode.php endpoint. Attackers can exploit this by sending specially crafted HTTP POST requests containing malicious code in the 'code' parameter. All users running affected versions of KaiYuanTong ECT Platform are vulnerable.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Full system compromise allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands with web server privileges, potentially leading to data theft, ransomware deployment, or complete server takeover.
Likely Case
Remote code execution leading to web shell installation, data exfiltration, or lateral movement within the network.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if proper network segmentation, WAF rules, and input validation are in place to block malicious requests.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploit details have been publicly disclosed and the vulnerability is relatively easy to exploit with basic HTTP request crafting skills.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown - vendor did not respond to disclosure
Vendor Advisory: None available
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Consider upgrading to a newer version if available, or implement workarounds and mitigations.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Block vulnerable endpoint
allUse web server configuration or WAF to block access to /public/server/runCode.php
# Apache: RewriteRule ^/public/server/runCode\.php$ - [F,L]
# Nginx: location ~ /public/server/runCode\.php$ { deny all; }
Input validation and sanitization
allImplement strict input validation for the 'code' parameter to reject any shell metacharacters
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement network segmentation to isolate affected systems from critical assets
- Deploy web application firewall (WAF) with rules to detect and block command injection attempts
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if /public/server/runCode.php exists and accepts POST requests with 'code' parameter. Test with safe payload like 'echo test' to confirm command execution.Check Version:
Check application version in admin panel or configuration files. For web interface: typically accessible at /admin or similar paths.Verify Fix Applied:
Verify that /public/server/runCode.php is no longer accessible or properly sanitizes input. Test with same safe payload to ensure no command execution occurs.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- POST requests to /public/server/runCode.php containing shell metacharacters (;, |, &, $, etc.)
- Unusual command execution patterns in system logs following web requests
Network Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to /public/server/runCode.php with suspicious 'code' parameter values
- Outbound connections from web server to unexpected destinations
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri_path="/public/server/runCode.php" AND (request_method="POST" AND request_body CONTAINS "code=") AND (request_body CONTAINS ";" OR request_body CONTAINS "|" OR request_body CONTAINS "&")
