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
app\admin\controller\RouteController.php in ThinkCMF 5.0.190111 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by using vectors involving portal/List/index and list/:id to inject this code into data\conf\route.php, as demonstrated by a file_put_contents call.

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

ThinkCMF 5.0.190111 contains a code injection vulnerability in app\admin\controller\RouteController.php. Attackers can inject arbitrary PHP code through portal/List/index and list/:id endpoints, which gets written to the data/conf/route.php configuration file. Once the malicious PHP code is written to this file, it can be executed, enabling full remote code execution on the server.

MitigationRestrict network access to the ThinkCMF admin interface to prevent unauthenticated access. If available, apply the vendor patch or upgrade to a patched ThinkCMF version.

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. Identify ThinkCMF installation
    Locate ThinkCMF by checking for characteristic directories such as app/admin/controller, public, data/conf, or the presence of index.php with ThinkCMF references.
    Affected if ThinkCMF framework is present in the environment.
  2. Determine ThinkCMF version
    Check for a version file or configuration that displays the ThinkCMF version number. Typical locations include a version.php file, README, or the application bootstrap files.
    Affected if The installed version matches 5.0.190111 exactly.
  3. Verify RouteController.php exists
    Confirm the file app/admin/controller/RouteController.php exists in the ThinkCMF installation directory.
    Affected if The vulnerable RouteController.php file is present.
  4. Inspect route configuration file
    Examine the contents of data/conf/route.php for any unexpected or obfuscated PHP code, particularly evaluate statements, system calls, or base64-decoded strings.
    Affected if The route.php file contains suspicious PHP code that was not intentionally added by administrators.
  5. Check admin interface accessibility
    Determine if the /admin or /?s=admin endpoint is accessible from untrusted networks without authentication.
    Affected if The ThinkCMF admin panel is exposed to unauthenticated or untrusted network access.

A user is affected if ThinkCMF version 5.0.190111 is installed, the RouteController.php is present, and either the data/conf/route.php contains injected PHP code or the admin interface is accessible to untrusted users.
