🚨 Severity: HIGH

💡 Vulnerability: The DANGEROUS_EXTENSIONS configuration in lib/constants/upload.ts did not block potentially malicious executable scripts (like .php, .sh, .py, .cgi) or web content (like .html, .htm, .svg, .xml). Since Backblaze B2 endpoints generate URLs that might serve these files with their client-provided MIME type or extension, this allowed attackers to bypass intended restrictions and potentially upload files capable of triggering Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), or other remote execution depending on the storage server configuration.

🎯 Impact: Malicious users could upload script files that, when accessed, execute in the context of the user's browser (XSS) or the server environment if improperly configured.

🔧 Fix: Expanded the DANGEROUS_EXTENSIONS array to include .php, .sh, .py, .pl, .cgi, .html, .htm, .svg, and .xml, effectively blocking their upload globally across all features utilizing the standard upload validations.

✅ Verification: Run pnpm test to ensure existing file validation logic correctly processes the updated array and existing tests pass. Evaluated the codebase to confirm DANGEROUS_EXTENSIONS is used effectively in the unified validateFileName utility.

Pull request overview

This PR hardens the shared upload validation rules by expanding the blocked (“dangerous”) file extension list, aiming to prevent uploads of script and web-content files that could be abused when served back from storage.

Changes:

  • Expanded DANGEROUS_EXTENSIONS to include common script and web-content extensions (.php, .sh, .py, .pl, .cgi, .html, .htm, .svg, .xml).
  • Minor formatting/consistency updates to MIME type sets and function signatures in the shared upload validation module.
