CVE-2026-55578

NVD: Pheditor is a single-file editor and file manager written in PHP. NVD: From version 2.0.1 to before version 2.0.6, the terminal feature in Pheditor uses an incomplete character blocklist to sanitize user-supplied commands before passing them to shell_exec(). NVD: After the fix for GHSA-9643-6xjp-vx57 (which added $ to the blocklist), the characters | (single pipe), (backtick), and the newline byte (0x0A) remain unblocked.
