CVE-2026-43641
CriticalCVSS 9.8Summary
Softaculous Virtualizor before 3.2.9 (Patch 9) and 3.0.0 contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the billing module handler that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root by bypassing authentication through specific parameter combinations. Attackers can deserialize a crafted billing_data POST field and inject shell payloads through the uid field, which is passed unmodified to proc_open() via vexec(), yielding complete control of the host and all managed VPS instances.
Risk Assessment
The risk is critical: an unauthenticated attacker can gain full control over the server and all virtual machines, leading to complete compromise of the infrastructure.
Recommendation
Immediately update Softaculous Virtualizor to version 3.2.9 (Patch 9) or later and restrict access to the admin panel to trusted IP addresses only.

See all- CVE-2026-43643High
Softaculous Virtualizor before 3.2.9 (Patch 9) and 3.0.0 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the billing module handler that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to modify any tenant's account balance by supplying crafted act and from_billing_module parameters to the admin panel dispatcher. Attackers can send a POST request with arbitrary uid and balance values in the billing_data field to trigger an unauthenticated parameterized UPDATE against the users table, enabling account balance manipulation and potential automated service suspension for targeted accounts.
- CVE-2026-43642High
Softaculous Virtualizor before 3.2.9 (Patch 9) and 3.0.0 contains a PHP object injection vulnerability in the billing module handler that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to supply arbitrary serialized PHP objects for deserialization by setting the act parameter to login with the from_billing_module parameter present. Attackers can pass malicious serialized data through the billing_data POST field to the unserialize() function without allowed_classes restrictions, enabling exploitation of available POP chains to achieve remote code execution as root.
