What is CVE-2016-7998?

The SPIP template composer/compiler in versions 3.1.2 and earlier is susceptible to a security flaw that allows a remote authenticated user to execute arbitrary PHP code. This is achieved through the upload of an HTML file containing specially crafted INCLUDE or INCLURE tags, which can be subsequently accessed via the 'valider_xml' action. As a result, this vulnerability poses a significant risk, enabling potentially harmful code execution on the server.
