CVE-2026-65711
sysPass 3.2.11 Authenticated OS Command Injection via Backup Path
Description

sysPass through version 3.2.11 contains an OS command injection vulnerability that allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary commands as the web server process user by setting a malicious backup path and triggering a backup. The FileBackupService builds a tar shell command via string concatenation, inserting the admin-configurable siteBackupPath setting without escapeshellarg() or equivalent sanitization before passing it to exec(), causing injected commands to persist and execute on every subsequent backup trigger.
