Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Concrete5 versions up to and including 8.5.2
Description
The issue allows for the unrestricted upload of files with dangerous types, such as .php files, via the File Manager. This can be achieved by modifying the site configuration to upload the PHP file, which can then be used to execute arbitrary commands.

As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the File Manager to minimize the risk of exploitation.
