CVE-2026-81163
Description
A module to import media files into media library. The import folder is a plain textfield with no validation. Point it at any directory the web user can read, and the importer copies every file whose extension matches a selected media type into the public files directory and publishes it as a Media entity. Files that were deliberately kept outside the webroot, such as a private file store, become downloadable by anonymous visitors at a predictable URL.
