Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to execute arbitrary code.
In CentOS-WebPanel.com (aka CWP) CentOS Web Panel 0.9.8.838 to 0.9.8.846, remote attackers can bypass authentication in the login process by leveraging the knowledge of a valid username.
