CVE-2026-73695
Control Web Panel (CWP) < 1.16 Path Traversal via services/users/index.php
Control Web Panel (CWP) before webpanel_version 1.16 contains a path traversal vulnerability in services/users/index.php that allows attackers to include arbitrary local PHP files by supplying an unsanitized module name parameter concatenated directly into an include path. Attackers can inject directory traversal sequences into the module name to achieve local file inclusion and execute arbitrary PHP code in the user panel context.

Control Web Panel (CWP) before webpanel_version 1.16 contains a path traversal vulnerability in services/users/index.php, where an attacker-supplied module name is concatenated directly into an include path with no allowlist, basename(), or traversal sanitization. An attacker can supply directory traversal sequences in the module name to include arbitrary local .php files, resulting in local PHP file inclusion.
