CVE-2026-54177: Laravel Backpack CRUD: HasUploadFields keeps the attacker-supplied file extension — public-disk uploads of `shell.php` reach the webserver
HasUploadFields (used via CrudTrait on Backpack-managed models) and the withFiles() uploader preserve the client-supplied file extension without validation. On installations using a public disk with php artisan storage:link, this allows an authenticated administrator to upload a file with a server-executable extension that the web server will pass to the PHP interpreter - if no MIME or other type of upload validation is present.
