An issue was found in Backdrop CMS versions prior to 1.13.5 and 1.14.2, allowing the upload of configuration archives through both the user interface and command line without sufficient validation. This flaw can lead to unauthorized scripts being uploaded, posing a risk to server integrity. Although this vulnerability requires the attacker to possess administrative privileges, which should ideally be restricted to trusted users, it indicates a potential threat if additional server-side scripting languages are exploitable.
