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
An issue in the /parser/dwoo component of Daylight Studio FuelCMS v1.5.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted PHP code.

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

This is a remote code execution vulnerability in the Dwoo templating parser component of FuelCMS v1.5.2. Attackers can inject and execute arbitrary PHP code by sending crafted malicious input to the /parser/dwoo endpoint, achieving full system compromise.

MitigationImmediately restrict or disable the /parser/dwoo endpoint if unused, apply any available vendor patches, or upgrade to a patched version of FuelCMS; implement strict input validation on the parser if the functionality is required.

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 installed FuelCMS version
    Check the FuelCMS version file or admin dashboard about page. Common locations include a version.php file in the fuel/application/config directory or the CMS admin interface.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.5.2 (exact match required)
  2. Identify installed Dwoo version
    Check the Dwoo library version included with the installation, typically found in fuel/modules/parser/libraries/dwoo or within composer/vendor directories.
    Affected if The Dwoo version is exactly 1.1.0 (exact match required)
  3. Verify /parser/dwoo endpoint is accessible
    Attempt to access the /parser/dwoo URI path on the web server (e.g., http://target.com/parser/dwoo). Check if the application routes this request to the Dwoo parser component.
    Affected if The endpoint responds and processes template input (even if returning an error, the route exists)
  4. Confirm Dwoo parser module is enabled
    Check FuelCMS parser configuration files (typically in fuel/application/config/parser.php or similar) to verify the Dwoo parser driver is loaded and enabled.
    Affected if The Dwoo parser driver is listed as enabled in the parser configuration

A user is affected if they run FuelCMS version 1.5.2 with Dwoo version 1.1.0 and have the /parser/dwoo endpoint accessible and enabled in their configuration.
