CVE-2025-11022
📋 TL;DR
A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Personal Project Panilux allows attackers to trick authenticated users into executing unintended actions. When exploited, this CSRF vulnerability can lead to command injection, potentially giving attackers remote code execution capabilities. This affects Panilux versions before v0.10.0, though the vendor denies ownership of the product.

- Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
- Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
- Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Remote code execution with full system compromise, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server with the privileges of the Panilux application.
Likely Case
Unauthorized actions performed on behalf of authenticated users, potentially including configuration changes, data manipulation, or limited command execution depending on application functionality.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper CSRF protections and input validation in place, potentially reduced to minor configuration changes.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires tricking an authenticated user into visiting a malicious page while logged into Panilux. The CSRF leads to command injection, suggesting the application processes user input unsafely.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: v0.10.0 or later
Vendor Advisory: None (vendor denies ownership)
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Upgrade Panilux to version 0.10.0 or later. 2. Verify the installation. 3. Restart the Panilux service. 4. Test functionality.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Implement CSRF Tokens
allAdd anti-CSRF tokens to all state-changing requests in Panilux
Implementation depends on Panilux's framework; typically involves adding unique tokens to forms and validating them server-side
Input Validation and Sanitization
allImplement strict input validation and command sanitization to prevent command injection
Sanitize all user inputs, especially those used in system commands; use allowlists for expected values
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate Panilux behind a firewall with strict access controls, limiting exposure to trusted users only
- Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block CSRF attempts and command injection patterns
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check Panilux version; if below 0.10.0, it is vulnerable. Review application logs for unexpected command execution or CSRF attempts.Check Version:
Check Panilux configuration files or admin interface for version information; command varies by installation method.Verify Fix Applied:
After upgrading to v0.10.0 or later, test CSRF protection by attempting to submit requests without valid tokens and verify command injection is prevented.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unexpected command execution in system logs
- Failed CSRF token validation attempts in application logs
- Unusual POST requests from unexpected sources
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests with suspicious parameters that could trigger command execution
- Traffic patterns indicating CSRF attacks (e.g., requests from external sites to Panilux endpoints)
SIEM Query:
Example: search for 'Panilux' AND ('command' OR 'exec' OR 'system') in application logs, or detect POST requests without Referer headers matching the application domain.
