CVE-2026-103535
8.8 HIGHPublished 2026-10-12 · Updated 2026-10-15
AI risk analysis
- Summary
- Thelia v2.6.1 contains path traversal and PHP code injection vulnerabilities in its translation editor that can be chained to achieve remote code execution. An authenticated user with UPDATE permissions can write malicious PHP files outside the expected directory and execute them with web-server privileges.
- Exploitability
- Exploitation requires an authenticated user with UPDATE-level permissions on admin.configuration.language, which is moderately difficult but achievable through social engineering or credential compromise.
- Blast radius
- The vulnerability affects all Thelia installations using the translation editor feature, potentially allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code as the web server user and gain full control over the application's data and functionality.
- Detection
- No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.
- Prioritized remediation
- Upgrade to 2.6.1.1 or later to receive the patched version that addresses both the path traversal and PHP injection flaws in the translation editor.

NVD description
Thelia v2.6.1 contains path traversal and PHP code injection vulnerabilities in its translation editor that can be chained to achieve remote code execution. The `item_name` parameter, used to build the translation file's write path, does not sanitize directory traversal sequences such as `../`. This enables an authenticated user with `UPDATE`-level permissions on `admin.configuration.language` to write files outside the expected `templates/` directory, including to web‑accessible paths. Separately, the translation‑writing logic does not escape `\` in user‑supplied values, allowing inputs to break out of the PHP string literal and inject executable code into the translation file. Chained together, these flaws allow a malicious PHP file to be written to a web-accessible path and executed with the web‑server’s privileges.
