Summary
File Browser before 2.63.20 Privilege Escalation via Proxy Authentication
Details

File Browser versions before 2.63.20 fail to honor the createUserDir isolation in proxy and hook authentication auto-provisioning paths. Attackers with valid upstream-authenticated credentials can read, modify, delete, and share files belonging to other users by exploiting the server root scope assignment.
