Thank you very much for checking CM for security vulnerabilities! I have fixed them in the devel branch and will now release a new version.

To all the CM users listening in: The two vulnerabilities found by feedersec could only be exploited by logged-in users. However, especially in the case that you are running CM as root (which you should not!) one of the vulnerabilities could lead to the compromise of your server. I'll release a new version now, please make sure to update as soon as possible.

Many thanks again @feedersec, please contact me again if you find anything in the future!
