# im3x Scriptables: crafted upload filename lets attackers run OS commands

im3x Scriptables through the v2-dev branch fails to sanitize filenames on uploads to its /sync endpoint. An attacker who uploads a file with a crafted name can inject operating system commands that run on the server.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check whether the deployment runs im3x Scriptables from the v2-dev branch (`git branch` in the install directory, or the deployed package version)
- Check whether the /sync endpoint is reachable from untrusted networks
