Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Bitflux Upload Progress Meter versions prior to 8276

Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the uploadprogress php rfc1867 file function, which can be triggered by crafted HTTP POST file upload requests. This can lead to a denial of service (crash) or potentially allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For versions prior to 8276, update to version 8276 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the upload functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
