Control Web Panel Command Injection Vulnerability

Control Web Panel (CWP) before webpanel_version 1.16 is affected by an OS command injection vulnerability in the protected_directory user panel module.

Attackers can exploit this flaw by submitting unescaped input through the file POST parameter in the acc=deletedp action. This input is passed directly into a shell_exec call, allowing arbitrary command execution in the user panel context.

• Affected versions: CWP before webpanel_version 1.16
• Attack vector: file POST parameter in acc=deletedp action
• Impact: arbitrary command execution in the user panel context
