**Date:** 08 May 2025  
**Source:** https://www.mycert.org.my/portal/advisory?id=MA-1322.052025  
**Advisory ID:** MA-1322.052025

---

**1.0 Introduction**
Recently Craft CMS has released security update to address a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Craft CMS.
**2.0 Impact**
- Full Server Compromise: Successful exploitation leads to complete system control by the attacker, allowing them to steal sensitive data, modify files, and execute arbitrary code.
- Data Theft and Integrity Loss: Attackers can access and exfiltrate sensitive information stored on the server, including databases, user data, and configuration files.
- Increased Attack Surface: The public availability of a Metasploit module further lowers the barrier for attack, making it easier for less sophisticated attackers to target vulnerable systems.
**3.0 Affected Products**
- Craft CMS: Versions prior to 3.9.15, 4.14.15 or 5.6.17 to address CVE-2025-32432
- Yii Framework: Versions prior to 2.0.52 to address CVE-2025-58136
