CVE-2026-73694FileRun < 2026.3.0 OS Command Injection via escapeshellcmd() No-Op Redefinition
High 7.2
In plain English
A high-severity OS command injection in FileRun from FileRun. Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 2.2% (higher than 83% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
FileRun before 2026.3.0 contains an OS command injection vulnerability caused by a no-op redefinition of escapeshellcmd() in CLI.php that strips shell-metacharacter escaping, allowing attacker-controlled input to reach an exec() sink unsanitized. Attackers can exploit this through an interactive path via image_preview.php with a crafted args parameter requiring superuser authentication, or through a persistent path by storing malicious payloads in thumbnails_ffmpeg_args or thumbnails_ffmpeg_ss that execute when any user triggers video thumbnail generation.
