The manipulation of the argument install leads to deserialization. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. VDB-251562 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.

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 · moderate confidence

A PHP deserialization vulnerability exists in Hecheng Leadshop up to v1.4.20 in the /web/leadshop.php file. The 'install' parameter is vulnerable to unsafe deserialization, potentially allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by crafting malicious serialized objects.

MitigationImmediately upgrade to a patched version if available, or disable the vulnerable install functionality. Implement strict input validation on the 'install' parameter and consider deploying a WAF rule to block known deserialization attack patterns until a permanent fix is applied.

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 Leadshop installation exists
    Check for the presence of the Leadshop application on the server by searching for leadshop.php in the web root directory, or look for Leadshop-specific directories and files.
    Affected if The Leadshop application is present on the server.
  2. Identify installed Leadshop version
    Examine the /web/leadshop.php file for a version number, or look for a version file in the Leadshop installation directory. Compare the found version against the affected range of >= 1.4.0 and <= 1.4.20.
    Affected if The installed version falls within 1.4.0 to 1.4.20 inclusive.
  3. Verify vulnerable file exists
    Confirm the presence of the file /web/leadshop.php in the web-accessible directory.
    Affected if The file /web/leadshop.php exists on the system.
  4. Check if install parameter is accessible
    Review the application's routing configuration and the leadshop.php file to determine if the 'install' parameter is processed and reachable via HTTP requests.
    Affected if The 'install' parameter is processed by the application without proper sanitization.

A user is affected if Leadshop is installed with a version between 1.4.0 and 1.4.20 inclusive, the /web/leadshop.php file exists, and the application processes the 'install' parameter.
