## What is CVE-2026-6382?

CVE-2026-6382 is a critical command injection vulnerability in Unknown Advanced File Manager, published on 6 Jul 2026. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The FileOrganizer  WordPress plugin before 1.1.9, Advanced File Manager  WordPress plugin before 5.4.12, File Manager Pro  WordPress plugin before 2.1.1, File Manager WordPress plugin before 8.0.4 do not properly escape a parameter before passing it to a shell command when processing image operations, allowing authenticated users to perform OS Command Injection. This requires the server to have the ImageMagick convert CLI available without either the PHP imagick or GD extensions.

Affected product: Unknown Advanced File Manager. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
