Impact

Authenticated users, with access to the configuration, can create SSH resource files in unintended directories, leading to the execution of arbitrary code.

Patches

Workaround

Limit access to the configuration to yourself or users you can trust.

Who Is Affected

• Check the configured module paths in the general configuration for suspicious entries.
