CVE-2025-41736
HighCVSS 8.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Elevated risk55th percentile - higher than 55% of all known CVEs
Summary
A low-privileged remote attacker can upload a new or overwrite an existing Python script by using a path traversal of the target filename in PHP, resulting in remote code execution.
Risk Assessment
A low-privileged attacker could achieve code execution on the server, potentially leading to system compromise and further escalation. This poses a serious threat to application confidentiality and integrity.
Recommendation
Update the application to a fixed version or implement filename validation and restrict writable directories. Limit privileges of accounts allowed to upload scripts.

- CVE-2017-12934High
PHP versions 7.0.x before 7.0.21 and 7.1.x before 7.1.7 are prone to a heap use after free while unserializing untrusted data. This issue is related to the zval_get_type function in Zend/zend_types.h.
- CVE-2017-11628High
In PHP versions before 5.6.31, 7.x before 7.0.21, and 7.1.x before 7.1.7, a stack-based buffer overflow in the zend_ini_do_op() function could lead to denial of service or potentially allow executing code. This issue is relevant for PHP applications that accept untrusted input for the parse_ini_string or parse_ini_file function.
- CVE-2017-11142High
In PHP versions before 5.6.31, 7.x before 7.0.17, and 7.1.x before 7.1.3, remote attackers could cause a denial of service attack by injecting long form variables, leading to excessive CPU consumption.
- CVE-2016-5399High
The bzread function in PHP before 5.5.38, 5.6.x before 5.6.24, and 7.x before 7.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted bz2 archive.
- CVE-2017-6441High
The _zval_get_long_func_ex function in PHP 7.1.2 has a vulnerability that allows attackers to cause a denial of service through crafted use of 'declare(ticks=' in a PHP script, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and application crash.
- CVE-2017-7272High
PHP versions up to 7.1.11 enable potential SSRF attacks in applications that accept a hostname argument for fsockopen or pfsockopen, expecting the port number to be constrained. Due to the recognition of :port syntax, fsockopen will use the port number specified in the hostname argument instead of the port number in the second argument of the function.
- CVE-2016-10161High
The object_common1 function in PHP before 5.6.30, 7.0.x before 7.0.15, and 7.1.x before 7.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) via crafted serialized data that is mishandled in a finish_nested_data call.
- CVE-2016-10158High
The exif_convert_any_to_int function in PHP before 5.6.30, 7.0.x before 7.0.15, and 7.1.x before 7.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted EXIF data that triggers an attempt to divide the minimum representable negative integer by -1.
