Laravel-Mediable 7.0.0 < 7.0.2 RCE via .pht File Upload

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Laravel-Mediable 7.0.0 before 7.0.2 contains an incomplete patch for CVE-2026-49972 in which the .pht extension is absent from the forbidden_extensions blocklist in config/mediable.php. The blocklist introduced to address CVE-2026-49972 includes phpt but omits pht, which Apache executes as PHP via the default FilesMatch directive on Debian and Ubuntu systems. An attacker can upload a .pht file that passes all validation in MediaUploader::verifyExtension() and File::sanitizeFileName() because pht is not present in the blocklist, causing the file to be written to disk and executed as PHP when requested, enabling remote code execution with the privileges of the web server process.
