Description

The Webform Multiple File Upload module allows users to upload multiple files on a Webform.

The Webform Multifile File Upload module contains a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability where form inputs will be unserialized and a specially crafted form input may trigger arbitrary code execution depending on the libraries available on a site.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the ability to submit a Webform with a Multiple File Input field. Further, a site must have an object defined with methods that are invoked at wake/destroy that include code that can be leveraged for malicious purposes. Drupal 7 Core contains one such class which can be used to delete arbitrary files, but contributed or custom classes may include methods that can be leveraged for RCE.

Note: this vulnerability exists in the Webform Multiple File Upload (webform_multifile) module. There is a similarly named module Webform Multiple File (webform_multiple_file) which is not related to this issue.
