id: CVE-2026-63358

info:
  name: FileGator < 7.14.2 - Privilege Escalation
  author: moizxsec
  severity: high
  description: |
    FileGator accepts arbitrary Unix permission values via the '/chmoditems' API endpoint and passes the value directly to PHP's native 'chmod()' function through 'octdec()' conversion, with no validation. This allows an authenticated user with 'chmod' permission to upgrade their privileges to root.
  impact: |
    An authenticated user with the chmod permission can assign arbitrary Unix permissions (e.g. setuid or world-writable), leading to privilege escalation.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade to FileGator 7.14.2 or later.
