Fossify File Manager through 1.6.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows crafted ZIP archives to write files outside the extraction folder by bypassing an unanchored startsWith check. Attackers can supply archive entries like ../<name>_x/file to create or overwrite files in sibling folders when a user extracts the archive.
