CVE-2026-44377CubeCart: Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) in Smarty Templates leading to RCE
Critical 9.1
In plain English
A critical-severity code injection in v6 from cubecart. Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.7% (higher than 55% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
CubeCart is an ecommerce software solution. Prior to 6.7.0, an Authenticated Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability exists in multiple modules of CubeCart (including Email Templates and Documents). The application unsafely evaluates user-supplied input directly through the Smarty template engine. By leveraging this, an authenticated attacker with administrative privileges can bypass current restrictions and call native PHP functions within the templates, such as readgzfile() to read sensitive configuration files, or error_log() to write a malicious PHP web shell, ultimately achieving Information Disclosure and full Remote Code Execution (RCE). This vulnerability is fixed in 6.7.0.
