The CVE-2025-49607 vulnerability in REDAXO CMS stems from inadequate input sanitization within the template management feature. An authenticated attacker with administrative privileges can inject malicious PHP code directly into an active template file. This injected code is not neutralized by the application and is saved to the server. When a visitor subsequently requests any frontend page that utilizes the compromised template, the server executes the embedded PHP code. This allows the attacker to achieve remote code execution with the same privileges as the web server process, enabling them to run arbitrary system commands, access sensitive data, or fully compromise the host server.
