Synopsis

Tiny File Manager Unauthenticated Access

Description

Tiny File Manager is a web-based file manager written in PHP. It allows users to manage files on a web server through a simple and user-friendly interface. When authentication is not enforced, an attacker can access the File Browser interface without any credentials. This can lead to unauthorized access to files and directories on the server, potentially exposing sensitive information or allowing for further exploitation of the system.

Solution

Authentication should be enforced to prevent unauthorized access to the Tiny File Manager interface.
