phpSysInfo: IP allowlist (PSI_ALLOWED) bypass via spoofed X-Forwarded-For / Client-IP headers

Published Aug 28, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS 1.9% KEV · Not listed
Description
phpSysInfo is a customizable PHP script that displays system information. Prior to 3.4.6, the PSI_ALLOWED access-control check in read_config.php trusts attacker-controlled X-Forwarded-For and Client-IP HTTP headers before REMOTE_ADDR. A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply an allowed address in one of these headers to impersonate a trusted client and access exposed hostname, kernel, CPU, memory, filesystem, and network-interface information. This issue is fixed in version 3.4.6.
