CVE-2024-52306

FileManager provides a Backpack admin interface for files and folder. Prior to 3.0.9, deserialization of untrusted data from the mimes parameter could lead to remote code execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.0.9.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

Potential Mitigations

• Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
• An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
