When wildcard validation is employed (files.*), a crafted user request could circumvent established validation rules, potentially exposing applications to unverified or malicious file uploads. This flaw has been addressed in versions 11.44.1 and 12.1.1, highlighting the importance of upgrading to secure versions to mitigate risks associated with improper validation.

Affected Version(s)

framework >= 12.0.0, < 12.1.1 < 12.0.0, 12.1.1

framework < 11.44.1 < 11.44.1

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
