Descriptions

A Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability exists in Filebrowser < 2.18.0 that allows attackers to create a backdoor user with admin privilege and get access to the filesystem via a malicious HTML webpage that is sent to the victim. An admin can run commands using the FileBrowser and hence it leads to RCE.

Un administrador puede ejecutar comandos utilizando el FileBrowser y por lo tanto conduce a RCE
