Summary
Bagisto v2.3.7 is vulnerable to Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) due to unsanitized user input being processed by the server-side templating engine when rendering product descriptions. This allows an attacker with product creation privileges to inject arbitrary template expressions that are evaluated by the backend — potentially leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the server.
Details
In Bagisto, product descriptions are rendered through Laravel’s Blade templating engine in various front-end and admin views. The product description field is not sanitized or escaped before being passed to the view, which means user-supplied data can break out of the expected string context and execute arbitrary template code.
PoC
Create a product and enter the payload to the description. <img width="679" height="669" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1e5dac3f-4043-4b31-98ed-f4346feb5477" /> Preview the page, observed that the template expressions were evaluated by the backend and displayed on the screen. <img width="1431" height="922" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/16f29c6e-05f4-40c4-9926-0c59e0a979c2" />
Impact
RCE potential: Attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code or system commands. Data breach: Read sensitive environment variables (.env), API keys, or database credentials. Defacement / persistence: Inject malicious scripts or backdoors in dynamic templates. Privilege escalation: If attackers have limited roles (e.g., product manager), they can compromise the entire application or host.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is difficult for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability and may require special conditions. An attacker needs high-level or administrative privileges. The attacker needs the user to perform some action, like clicking a link. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system. There is a low impact on the confidentiality of the information. There is a low impact on the integrity of the data. There is a low impact on the availability of the system.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
