CVE-2018-14387: An issue was discovered in WonderCMS before 2.5.2.

An issue was discovered in WonderCMS before 2.5.2. An attacker can create a new session on a web application and record the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to authenticate against the server using the same session identifier. The attacker can access the user's account through the active session. The Session Fixation attack fixes a session on the victim's browser, so the attack starts before the user logs in.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2018-14387 is a session fixation issue in WonderCMS before 2.5.2. An attacker could make a victim log in using a session identifier the attacker already knows, then use that active session to access the victim's account.

Executive priority

Treat this as a targeted account-access risk for legacy WonderCMS sites. Prioritize internet-facing or admin-accessible deployments, but do not escalate as known actively exploited based on the provided evidence.

Technical view

The CVE describes a session fixation flaw where a session is established before authentication and remains usable after the victim logs in. The public metadata does not provide CVSS, CWE, detailed affected CPEs, or full patch mechanics.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most likely limited to WonderCMS deployments running versions earlier than 2.5.2. The CVE affected-product metadata is sparse, so verify product and version from asset inventory rather than relying on CPE matching.

Exploitation context

The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or active exploitation evidence. Public references include a GitHub issue and WonderCMS change information, but the provided data does not establish exploitation in the wild.

Researcher notes

Key gaps are missing CVSS, CWE, CPEs, and detailed remediation notes. Defensive validation should focus on version confirmation and session identifier regeneration after authentication, without assuming broader product impact.

Mitigation direction

  • Identify any WonderCMS installations and their exact versions.
  • Upgrade WonderCMS versions earlier than 2.5.2 after confirming vendor guidance.
  • Review vendor release notes for any additional session-security instructions.
  • Invalidate existing sessions after upgrade where operationally feasible.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm production WonderCMS versions are 2.5.2 or later.
  • Check authentication flow regenerates session identifiers after login.
  • Review web logs for unusual repeated session reuse around login events.
  • Document any unsupported or unverified WonderCMS instances.
