Laravel with Ignition <= v8.4.2 Debug Mode - Remote Code Execution

id: CVE-2021-3129

info:
  name: Laravel with Ignition <= v8.4.2 Debug Mode - Remote Code Execution
  author: z3bd,pdteam
  severity: critical
  description: Laravel version 8.4.2 and before with Ignition before 2.5.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code because of insecure usage of file_get_contents() and file_put_contents(). This is exploitable on sites using debug mode with Laravel before 8.4.2.
  impact: |
    Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to remote code execution, potentially allowing an attacker to take control of the affected system.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade Laravel to version 8.4.3 or higher to mitigate this vulnerability.
