CVE-2024-51758

Summary

CVE-2024-51758 is a vulnerability affecting Filament, a Laravel development tool. The issue lies in the default use of the 'public' disk for storage, which can make sensitive data publicly accessible. This configuration, while convenient for local development, does not meet security standards for production environments. According to CWE-1188, this misconfiguration is considered a security vulnerability. Filament's latest release, 3.2.112, introduces a measure to address this issue. If the 'public' disk is set as the default, the exports feature will automatically switch to the 'local' disk instead. This change applies only to those who use the 'public' disk as their default and aims to enhance the security of Filament-based applications.
