NVD description

File Browser is a file managing interface for uploading, deleting, previewing, renaming, and editing files within a specified directory. Prior to 2.63.6, the Hook Authentication feature in File Browser allows administrators to delegate login verification to an external shell command. User-supplied credentials (username and password) are interpolated into this command string using os.Expand without sanitization. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject shell metacharacters in the username or password field at the login screen, causing the server to execute arbitrary OS commands before any authentication takes place. This is a critical pre-authentication RCE. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.63.6.

    🚨 CRITICAL - Pre-auth command injection in File Browser Hook Authentication (CVE-2026-54088) File Browser’s Hook Authentication feature (filebrowser before 2.63.6) builds an external shell command by interpolating the supplied username and password via os.Expand, allowing untrusted data to reach command execution. The root cause is improper input sanitization leading to OS command injection (shell metacharacter injection) when constructing shell commands. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this remotely by submitting crafted login fields containing shell metacharacters, triggering arbitrary command execution before authentication completes. Impact is critical pre-auth remote code execution, enabling full server compromise, data theft, lateral movement, and service disruption. 👉 Affected: filebrowser < 2.63.6 | Upgrade to 2.63.6

    Post summary

    Vulnerability CVE-2026-54088 in File Browser before 2.63.6 enables pre‑authentication command injection; upgrading to 2.63.6 applies the required patch.
