Hestiacp

Hestia Control Panel is a lightweight and powerful control panel for the modern web. From version 1.9.7 through 1.10.4, update_object_value() in func/main.sh does not escape single quotes when writing a custom document-root value to a user's web.conf file, allowing a low-privileged authenticated panel user with a web domain to inject an additional PATH field. When the user invokes the ordinary Search feature, the root-privileged v-search-user-object script loads the forged field through parse_object_kv_list_non_eval(), which permits reserved shell-variable names and globally replaces PATH before invoking column without an absolute path. By placing a malicious column executable in the injected search path, the user can execute arbitrary code as root. This residual vulnerability was introduced when version 1.9.7 replaced the raw eval sink addressed by CVE-2026-84984 with parse_object_kv_list_non_eval(), and it is fixed in version 1.10.5.

HestiaCP before 1.10.5 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows non-ROOT_USER administrators to perform write actions while impersonating the protected ROOT_USER account. Attackers can log in via the loginas parameter and POST to /add/cron/, because the read-only flag is never checked, causing crond to run their commands as the protected administrator's system account.

HestiaCP panel cronjob feature is affected by a broken access control vulnerability. Low privilege users can modify the panel cronjob to execute scripts HestiaCP management scripts with passwordless sudo. This could result in the takeover of administrator users in the application and the underlying webserver.

HestiaCP before 1.9.5 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated low-privilege users to inject arbitrary HTML by creating a DNS record with a double-quote followed by a script payload in the value field. The application fails to apply htmlspecialchars() encoding to the DNS record value field rendered into the data-sort-value HTML attribute in list_dns_rec.php, allowing the payload to execute in the browser of any user who views the DNS record list, including administrators.

HestiaCP before 1.9.5 contains an authenticated OS command injection vulnerability that allows low-privilege authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands as root by injecting a single-quote character into unvalidated DNS record types. Attackers can exploit insufficient input validation in is_dns_record_format_valid() combined with unsafe eval-based parsing in update_domain_zone() to prematurely close a variable assignment string and achieve full root code execution on the underlying host in a single DNS record creation step.
