Malcolm is a network traffic analysis tool suite. The file-upload component (FilePond PHP backend) accepts uploads at POST /server/php/submit.php and stores them in a directory served by the same nginx and php-fpm instance. The allow-list that should restrict accepted file types is an empty array by default (file-upload/php/config.php:16), so the type check is a no-op and every extension is accepted. The filename sanitizer keeps the .php extension intact. Committed files land in /var/www/upload/server/php/files (file-upload/php/config.php:7), and the component's nginx routes any URL ending in .php to php-fpm. An authenticated GET /server/php/files/<name>.php then executes the uploaded code as www-data. Prior to version 26.06.1, in RBAC mode, the upload endpoint is reachable by the granular ROLE_UPLOAD role (nginx/lua/nginx_auth_helpers.lua:71), a role intended only for submitting capture files. As a result, a user holding the upload-only role runs arbitrary PHP as www-data inside the file-upload container. Version 26.06.1 fixes the issue.
