CVE-2026-46397

HAX CMS helps manage microsite universe with PHP or NodeJs backends. Prior to version 26.0.0, an Authenticated Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in the HAXCMS saveOutline endpoint allows a low-privileged user to read arbitrary files on the server by manipulating the location field written into site.json. This enables attackers to exfiltrate sensitive system files such as /etc/passwd, application secrets, or configuration files accessible to the web server (www-data). Version 26.0.0 patches the issue.

Summary		(es) HAX CMS ayuda a gestionar el universo de micrositios con backends de PHP o NodeJs. Antes de la versión 26.0.0, una vulnerabilidad de inclusión local de ficheros (LFI) autenticada en el endpoint saveOutline de HAXCMS permite a un usuario con pocos privilegios leer ficheros arbitrarios en el servidor manipulando el campo location escrito en site.json. Esto permite a los atacantes exfiltrar ficheros de sistema sensibles como /etc/p4ssd, secretos de aplicación o ficheros de configuración accesibles para el servidor web (www-data). La versión 26.0.0 corrige el problema.
