What is CVE-2017-14048?

BlackCat CMS version 1.2 is susceptible to a remote code execution vulnerability, where authenticated users can inject arbitrary PHP code into the application. This exploitation occurs through a crafted 'new_modulename' parameter in the 'backend/addons/ajax_create.php' script. Attackers can leverage this vulnerability via Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) techniques, allowing them to execute malicious code on the server, potentially compromising the integrity of the web application and the data it handles. Organizations using this version should implement security measures to mitigate this risk.
