CVE-2026-41228: Froxlor has Local File Inclusion via path traversal in API `def_language` parameter leads to Remote Code Execution

April 16, 2026 (updated April 24, 2026)

The Froxlor API endpoint Customers.update (and Admins.update) does not validate the def_language parameter against the list of available language files. An authenticated customer can set def_language to a path traversal payload (e.g., ../../../../../var/customers/webs/customer1/evil), which is stored in the database. On subsequent requests, Language::loadLanguage() constructs a file path using this value and executes it via require, achieving arbitrary PHP code execution as the web server user.
