CVE-2023-35840 is a path traversal vulnerability in elFinder affecting versions prior to 2.1.62. The flaw is in the _joinPath function in elFinderVolumeLocalFileSystem.class.php and impacts the PHP LocalVolumeDriver connector. Improper restriction of path input allows crafted path values to traverse outside the intended base directory, enabling access to filesystem locations beyond the configured restriction boundary.
