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
A vulnerability was found in Yue Lao Blind Box 月老盲盒 up to 4.0. It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects the function base64image of the file /app/controller/Upload.php. The manipulation of the argument data leads to unrestricted upload. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

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

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the base64image function of /app/controller/Upload.php in Yue Lao Blind Box up to v4.0. Attackers can manipulate the base64-encoded data argument to upload arbitrary files (including executable scripts) to the server, potentially achieving remote code execution.

MitigationImplement strict server-side file type validation by checking magic bytes/content-type, enforce allowed extensions whitelist, store uploads outside webroot with no script execution permissions, and add filename sanitization.

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 the application and version
    Locate the application version file or header - common paths include version.php, about.php, or check the admin dashboard for version information. Compare the installed version to v4.0.
    Affected if The application is Yue Lao Blind Box version 4.0 or lower.
  2. Verify the vulnerable file exists
    Check if /app/controller/Upload.php exists in the webroot or application directory.
    Affected if The file /app/controller/Upload.php exists in the application.
  3. Confirm the base64image function is present
    Open /app/controller/Upload.php and search for the string 'function base64image' or 'base64image' to verify the vulnerable function exists.
    Affected if The base64image function is defined in Upload.php.
  4. Check upload directory accessibility
    Examine the application configuration or code to determine where uploaded files are stored. Verify if the upload directory is within the webroot and accessible via HTTP.
    Affected if Uploaded files are stored in a web-accessible directory.
  5. Test if upload functionality is exposed
    Attempt to access the upload endpoint directly - typically through the base64image function via POST request with a base64-encoded payload. Check if authentication is required.
    Affected if The upload functionality is accessible without authentication or with weak authentication.

You are affected if you are running Yue Lao Blind Box v4.0 or lower, the file /app/controller/Upload.php with the base64image function exists, and the upload functionality is accessible.
