CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

File Browser versions prior to 2.63.16 are vulnerable due to improper validation of dangling symlinks, which allows authenticated users with Create and Modify permissions to create files outside their intended scope. This can lead to unauthorized file manipulation and potential data exposure. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to version 2.63.16 to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description

File Browser provides a web file managing interface. Prior to 2.63.16, ScopedFs validates the nearest existing ancestor of a dangling symlink as in scope and then follows the symlink during file creation, allowing an authenticated user with Create and Modify permissions to create attacker-controlled files outside the user's scope. This issue is fixed in version 2.63.16.
