Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the 'uploadPutHandler' function within 'upload.go'. While the application implements a 'strictReferrerCheck' for POST-based uploads to prevent cross-origin attacks, this check is missing for PUT-based uploads. An attacker can bypass intended origin restrictions to upload or modify files. Although modern browser CORS preflight (OPTIONS) requirements may mitigate direct cross-origin exploitation in some browser contexts, the lack of server-side validation allows direct API interaction and exploitation in environments with relaxed CORS policies or via non-browser clients.
