Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in modules/galleryuploadfunction.php in Jupiter CMS allows remote attackers to upload picture files, and possibly files with arbitrary extensions, to gallery/albums/public.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in Jupiter CMS modules/galleryuploadfunction.php allows remote attackers to upload picture files and potentially files with arbitrary extensions to the publicly accessible gallery/albums/public directory, potentially leading to remote code execution if executable files can be uploaded.

MitigationImplement strict server-side file type validation using both extension allowlists and MIME type verification, rename uploaded files with random identifiers, store uploads outside webroot or with non-executable extensions, and remove or restrict the public gallery upload functionality if not business-critical.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm Jupiter CMS installation
    Locate Jupiter CMS files on the server - typical paths include /jupiter, /cms, or check for presence of index.php with Jupiter CMS signature
    Affected if Jupiter CMS is installed on the server
  2. Identify the vulnerable upload script
    Check for the presence of modules/galleryuploadfunction.php in the web root or CMS directory structure
    Affected if The file modules/galleryuploadfunction.php exists in the installation
  3. Verify upload directory exists
    Inspect whether the gallery/albums/public directory exists and is within the web document root
    Affected if The gallery/albums/public directory exists and is web-accessible
  4. Test upload functionality
    Attempt to access the gallery upload module via browser or send a multipart/form-data POST request to modules/galleryuploadfunction.php with a test file
    Affected if The upload endpoint responds and accepts file uploads without proper validation

If Jupiter CMS is installed with the modules/galleryuploadfunction.php file present and the gallery upload feature is accessible, the system is affected by this unrestricted file upload vulnerability.

Mitigation

Implement strict server-side file type validation using both extension allowlists and MIME type verification, rename uploaded files with random identifiers, store uploads outside webroot or with non-executable extensions, and remove or restrict the public gallery upload functionality if not business-critical.
