CVE-2021-25294
Description
OpenCATS through 0.9.5-3 unsafely deserializes index.php?m=activity requests, leading to remote code execution. This occurs because lib/DataGrid.php calls unserialize for the parametersactivity:ActivityDataGrid parameter. The PHP object injection exploit chain can leverage an __destruct magic method in guzzlehttp.
