CVE-2024-51567

CyberPanel versions up to 2.3.6 and the unpatched 2.3.7 release contain a critical flaw that lets attackers bypass authentication and run arbitrary commands. The vulnerability lies in the /dataBases/upgrademysqlstatus endpoint, which ignores authentication checks for POST requests and allows shell metacharacters. Attackers can exploit this to take full control of the affected server.
