Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the auth token process. An attacker can gain unauthorized privileges by creating a short-lived API key with elevated permissions. This is only exploitable if the attacker is a registered user without existing privileges to create or modify file requests, and there are no other users with access to the admin/upload menu.
