The issue allows reflected XSS because the filenames of uploaded files become predictable through a brute-force attack against the PHP mt rand function. This predictability can be exploited to conduct reflected XSS attacks.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 4.6.5.1, update to version 4.6.5.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting file uploads until the update is applied.
