MEDIUMUniSharp Laravel Filemanager directory traversal vulnerability
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Blast Radius
unisharp/laravel-filemanagerReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
UniSharp laravel-filemanager (aka Laravel Filemanager) with league/flysystem version < 2.0.0 allows download?working_dir=%2F.. directory traversal to read arbitrary files, as exploited in the wild in June 2022.
Since v2.6.4, UniSharp laravel-filemanager (aka Laravel Filemanager) requires users to install league/flysystem version >= 2.0.0.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for unisharp/laravel-filemanager. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update unisharp/laravel-filemanager to 2.6.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-5m2h-7rf2-rpx6 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-5m2h-7rf2-rpx6 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-5m2h-7rf2-rpx6. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-5m2h-7rf2-rpx6 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-5m2h-7rf2-rpx6 across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
