I. VULNERABILITY  
-------------------------  
AlphaWeb XE - Authenticated Insecure File Upload leading to RCE  
  
  
II. CVE REFERENCE

CVE-2021-40845  
  
  
III. VENDOR

IV. DESCRIPTION  
-------------------------  
  
The web part of Zenitel AlphaCom XE Audio Server through 11.2.3.10, called AlphaWeb XE, does not restrict file upload in the Custom Scripts section at php/index.php. Neither the content nor extension of the uploaded files is checked, allowing execution of PHP code under the /cmd directory.  
  
To exploit this vulnerability, someone must authenticate in the server and access the "Scripts" button in the "Custom scripts" tab.

Then, the button "Choose file" is clicked and the file is uploaded clicking "Upload".

The path of these files is /cmd/$FILE$. Knowing the path, as there is not any restriction the file upload functionality, uploading a PHP reverse shell or cmdshell allows to get Remote Code Execution in the server:
