Description

As a simple library, class.upload.php does not perform an in-depth check on uploaded files, allowing a Stored XSS vulnerability when the default configuration is used. Developers must be aware of that fact and use extension whitelisting accompanied by forcing the server to always provide content-type based on the file extension. The README has been updated to include these guidelines.

The weakness has been confirmed by the vendor and assigned the ID CVE-2023-6551.
