  • MODX Revolution 2.x improper input validation

    July 21, 2026

    MODX Revolution 2.x (core) has insufficient input validation that can allow injection of arbitrary content into site templates. Depending on site configuration, impact may escalate to remote code execution. The issue has been present for an extended period and was identified during an internal security review. CVE and CVSS are pending. Technical detail (attack vector, affected configuration criteria, and proof-of-concept) is withheld until patch adoption is broad enough for responsible full disclosure. All 2.8.x installations should upgrade; exposure cannot be reliably self-assessed from this preliminary advisory alone.

    Remediation: Upgrade MODX Revolution 2.x to 2.8.9-pl or newer as soon as possible. MODX Cloud customers: infrastructure-level mitigations reduce risk during upgrade but do not replace patching your site. SiteDash Client v1.9 also includes an additional mitigation.

    A XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability was discovered in the modRestServiceRequest component in MODX CMS 2.7.3 which can lead to an information disclosure or denial of service (DOS).

  • Active exploit via exposed MODX Revolution setup/ directory

    Disclosed
    April 1, 2019

    There is an active exploit of sites that leave the MODX Revolution setup/ directory in place after installation. Anyone on the internet can use the installation utility to re-install MODX against an attacker-controlled database, gain Manager access, and use the file manager to upload back doors—potentially leading to full server compromise (rootkits, spam relays, crypto miners). Affected installations are those with setup/ still web-accessible (commonly reported for sites on MODX Revolution 2.7.0 and earlier, but any version with an intact setup/ directory is at risk). Check by visiting https://yoursite.example/setup/; if the MODX installer appears, remove the directory immediately via FTP or SSH.

    Remediation: Remove the setup/ directory from the web root immediately if it is still present. Upgrading alone does not remove this exposure. After removal, verify https://yoursite.example/setup/ no longer serves the installer.
