Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Backpack CRUD (backpack/crud) versions 6.0.0 to before 6.8.14 and 7.0.0 to before 7.0.38 are affected. The image upload field accepts any base64 payload that begins with "data:image" without checking the MIME type or the decoded file bytes, so an authenticated admin can store a file of arbitrary type on the configured disk, possibly leading to stored XSS when the file is served. Upgrade to 6.8.14 or 7.0.38. Setting X-Content-Type-Options to nosniff on admin responses is an additional defense.
