What is CVE-2014-125116?

A remote code execution vulnerability has been identified in HybridAuth versions 2.0.9 to 2.2.2 stemming from insecure handling of the install.php script. Post-deployment, this script remains accessible and fails to adequately sanitize input before writing to the application’s configuration file (config.php). An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this flaw to inject arbitrary PHP code. Once injected, the malicious code is executed as the application loads the configuration file, potentially allowing total control over the server. Exploitation can lead to significant application disruptions as valid configurations may be overwritten, leading to loss of functionality.

Affected Version(s)

HybridAuth 2.0.9 <= 2.2.2

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
