Hackers Exploit ThinkPHP and ownCloud Vulnerabilities from 2022 and 2023

Hackers are increasingly exploiting outdated security flaws in poorly maintained systems, with vulnerabilities from 2022 and 2023 seeing a surge in attacks. According to threat intelligence platform GreyNoise, malicious actors are actively targeting CVE-2022-47945 and CVE-2023-49103, affecting the ThinkPHP Framework and the open-source ownCloud file-sharing solution. 

Both vulnerabilities are critical, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands or steal sensitive data, such as admin credentials and license keys. CVE-2022-47945 is a local file inclusion (LFI) flaw in ThinkPHP versions before 6.0.14. If the language pack feature is enabled, unauthenticated attackers can remotely execute operating system commands. 

Akamai reported that Chinese threat groups have exploited this flaw since late 2023, and GreyNoise recently detected 572 unique IPs actively attacking vulnerable systems.

Despite having a low Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS) rating of just 7% and not being listed in CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, CVE-2022-47945 remains under heavy assault. 

The second vulnerability, CVE-2023-49103, impacts ownCloud’s file-sharing software. It stems from a third-party library that leaks PHP environment details through a public URL. After its disclosure in November 2023, hackers began exploiting the flaw to steal sensitive data. A year later, it was named one of the FBI, CISA, and NSA’s top 15 most explo
