CVE-2026-41247: elFinder: Command injection in resize background color parameter when using ImageMagick CLI
(updated )
elFinder contains a command injection vulnerability in the resize command.
The bg (background color) parameter is accepted from user input and passed through image resize/rotate processing. In configurations that use the ImageMagick CLI backend, this value is incorporated into shell command strings without sufficient escaping. An attacker able to invoke the resize command with a crafted bg value may achieve arbitrary command execution as the web server process user.
This issue affects configurations where:
- the
resizecommand is enabled, - image processing uses the ImageMagick CLI backend, and
- the vulnerable code paths are reachable.
