    CWP2Shell: Control Web Panel before 1.29 has an unauthenticated-to-root RCE chain (10 CVEs, fixed in 1.29)

    On Nov 3 2026 VulnCheck disclosed ten vulnerabilities in Control Web Panel (CWP, formerly CentOS Web Panel) that chain from an unauthenticated request to a root shell. The CWP user panel (port 2083) sends its login redirect without stopping execution (CVE-2026-73696), so an attacker-named module file is included before login (path traversal, CVE-2026-73695); the phpini_editor and protected_directory modules then give file write and command execution as the hosting user (CVE-2026-73697, CVE-2026-77876). From that foothold, the root-owned loopback user API on 127.0.0.1:2302 has ungated routes (CVE-2026-77877), root command injections in /v1/restoredatabase/, /v1/newpass/ and /v1/valid_token/ (CVE-2026-77878, CVE-2026-77880, CVE-2026-104080) and SQL injections in its access_token() gate and dashboard route (CVE-2026-77879, CVE-2026-77881). The only precondition is one valid hosting account name, which the panel confirms (302 vs 404). CWP fixed the bugs in stages without naming CVEs: 1.12 closed the pre-auth entry, 1.16 fixed the user-panel modules, and 1.27/1.29 (Oct 30-31) fixed the user API; all ten are fixed in 1.29. VulnCheck counts tens of thousands of internet-exposed CWP panels. No in-the-wild exploitation reported yet, but the previous CWP user-panel RCE (CVE-2025-48703) was mass-exploited and is in CISA KEV.
