Description

A issue was discovered in SiteServer CMS prior to version 6.12. It allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code because an administrator can add the permitted file extension .aassp, which is converted to .asp because the "as" substring is deleted.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for sscms, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update sscms to 6.12 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2019-11401 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Treat uploaded files as untrusted until proven otherwise: validate the actual content type rather than the supplied extension, store uploads outside the web root on a volume mounted without execute permission, and rename them to server-generated identifiers so an attacker cannot choose the path a request will later resolve.

Frequently Asked Questions
