CVE-2026-67364 is a pre-authentication PHP code injection vulnerability in the Balbooa Forms Joomla extension (com_baforms), affecting versions 1.0.0 through 2.4.3.1. An optional custom-PHP post-submission handler evaluates code using eval(). A URL-parameter shortcode can be expanded with raw, unescaped attacker-controlled query input before evaluation, allowing injected PHP to execute in the server-side PHP context. The issue is also associated with CWE-95.

This is a standalone Python 3 exploit repository for CVE-2026-102425 in the Joomla Balbooa Forms com_baforms extension. The principal implementation is _engine.py, while poc.py provides an interactive and simplified mass-operation wrapper. The code checks component manifests and public pages for affected versions and exposed forms, then submits malicious field values to Balbooa form handlers. Exploitation depends on a pre-existing vulnerable PHP-after-submission configuration that interpolates a field shortcode within a double-quoted PHP string before eval(). On successful code execution, it attempts to deploy the bundled up.php PHP multipart file uploader to several common Joomla paths and records accessible shell URLs. targets.example.txt contains example target-list input, and README.md documents detection, exploitation, optional CVE-2026-67364 testing, and remediation. The included up.php is a basic unauthenticated file uploader; although it declares an auth-related variable, it does not enforce authentication.
The repository contains a README and one standalone, standard-library-only Python 3 exploit program, `balbooa_forms_poc.py`. It targets two claimed pre-authentication issues in Balbooa Forms for Joomla before 2.4.3.2. For CVE-2026-67364, it first obtains an anonymously exposed CSRF token from `form.getSessionToken`, then probes or exploits `form.message` using an injected URL parameter that is described as being inserted unescaped into a custom PHP form handler and executed via `eval`. Detection sweeps configurable form and submit-button ID ranges with a marker payload; RCE mode executes a configurable command; shell mode is explicitly destructive and writes `images/shell.php`. For CVE-2026-67363, the script targets unauthenticated Stripe and Authorize.net payment actions and supplies a user-selected, client-controlled order total, with an explicit opt-in acknowledgement because it can trigger real payment attempts. The README additionally references a Nuclei detection template, but that YAML file is not present in the supplied two-file repository; therefore this is not analyzed as a Nuclei framework repository.

A vulnerability identified as CVE-2026-67364, apparently involving PHP code injection through the `x` parameter of the BAForms `form.message` endpoint. The included proof-of-concept payload attempts to execute PHP expressions, using concatenated MD5 hashes as an execution indicator.
