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 Likeshop's File.php controller (userFormImage function). The HTTP POST file upload handler fails to validate file types, allowing remote attackers to upload malicious executables (PHP shells, web shells) to the server, potentially achieving remote code execution.

MitigationImmediately restrict upload functionality to whitelist safe file types (images, documents); implement server-side MIME type and content validation; store uploads outside web root or disable script execution in upload directories; apply vendor patches when available.

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 if Likeshop is installed
    Check your web server for the presence of Likeshop application files. Common locations include /var/www/html/, /home/*/public_html/, or your web root directory. Look for directories containing 'likeshop' or application files with likeshop references.
    Affected if Likeshop is present on the server
  2. Verify the Likeshop version
    Locate the version file or bootstrap file in the Likeshop installation directory. Common paths include a version.php, composer.json, or config file that displays the application version. Compare your version to <= 2.5.7.20210311.
    Affected if Installed version is 2.5.7.20210311 or earlier
  3. Locate the vulnerable File.php controller
    Search for the file 'File.php' in the application source code, typically under application/controller/ or app/Http/Controllers/. Verify it contains the 'userFormImage' function.
    Affected if File.php with userFormImage function exists in the application
  4. Check if upload functionality is accessible
    Examine your web server routing or URL patterns to determine if the userFormImage endpoint is exposed. This is typically accessible via an HTTP POST to an upload-related route.
    Affected if The upload endpoint is routable and accepts POST requests
  5. Inspect the upload directory
    Check the configured upload directory in the application (commonly /uploads/, /public/uploads/, or similar). Determine if files stored there can be executed as scripts (PHP, .exe, .sh).
    Affected if Upload directory exists within the web root and allows script execution

You are affected if Likeshop version 2.5.7.20210311 or earlier is installed, the File.php controller with userFormImage function exists, and the upload functionality is accessible without file type restrictions.
