Dolibarr ERP CRM 7.0.3 contains a remote code evaluation vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by injecting PHP code through the db_name parameter. Attackers can send a POST request to install/step1.php with malicious PHP code in the db_name parameter, then execute commands via the check.php endpoint using the cmd GET parameter.
