Multiple Cpanel/WHM Vulnerabilities Allow Arbitrary Command Execution On Server
cPanel patched a root command-execution flaw and two stored XSS bugs in WHM.
Authenticated OS command injection in Multilang adminbin
CVE-2026-93698 is a critical OS command injection flaw (CWE-78) caused by insufficient validation in the Multilang adminbin. A remote attacker who already has low-privileged access can trigger it over the network with no user interaction and run arbitrary operating-system commands. Impact is high for confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and the changed scope means effects can extend beyond the vulnerable component (CVSS 3.0 9.9). The vendor and affected version range are not identified in the provided data. It is not in the CISA KEV catalog, and no public proof-of-concept is known.
What to do: Apply the vendor fix for the Multilang adminbin as soon as a patched release is available, and confirm the affected version range from the vendor advisory because none is given in this data. Until then, limit network access to the admin interface to trusted administrators, enforce least privilege on accounts that can reach adminbin, and watch logs for unexpected process or command execution.
