What is CVE-2021-37334?

Umbraco Forms, specifically versions 4.0.0 to 8.7.5, are susceptible to a security issue that allows for remote code execution and potential arbitrary file deletion. This vulnerability arises from improper validation of file extensions after the file is temporarily stored. By default, these files are kept in the application’s directory at %BASEDIR%/APP_DATA/TEMP/FileUploads/. Although access is limited through the root web.config file, an attacker can circumvent this by uploading a specially crafted web.config file, leading to the execution of malicious scripts and unauthorized command execution on the server.
