Remote Code Execution (RCE)

An attack that allows arbitrary code execution on your server from a remote source.

RCE is the most severe vulnerability class — it allows an attacker to run arbitrary commands on your server. Usually results from deserialization flaws, eval() of user input, or command injection in file uploads or shell calls.
