elFinder before 2.1.59 contains multiple vulnerabilities leading to RCE

Impact

We recently fixed several vulnerabilities affect elFinder 2.1.58. These vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code and commands on the server hosting the elFinder PHP connector, even with the minimal configuration.

Patches

The issues were addressed in our last release, 2.1.59.

Workarounds

If you can't update to 2.1.59, make sure your connector is not exposed without authentication.
