elFinder is an open-source file manager for web, written in JavaScript using jQuery UI. Prior to 2.1.70, the netmount command is omitted from elFinderConnector::$csrfProtectedCmds in php/elFinderConnector.class.php, so validateCsrfToken() is not called for this state-changing operation. In the shipped php/connector.minimal.php-dist configuration, FTP network mounts are enabled by default, and attacker-controlled protocol, host, path, port, user, pass, alias, and options arguments flow through elFinder::netmount() in php/elFinder.class.php to php/elFinderVolumeFTP.class.php. A cross-site request can therefore persist an attacker-chosen FTP mount in the victim's session, cause the PHP server to connect to an attacker-chosen FTP host and port, and send supplied credentials without an X-elFinder-CSRF token. This issue is fixed in version 2.1.70.

GHSA-9hjf-w35w-6vx2 — elFinder: CSRF in netmount allows forced FTP mounts and server-side FTP connections

Affected: Packagist: studio-42/elfinder

### Summary The PHP connector's CSRF gate protects many mutating commands, but it does not protect the `netmount` connector command. In the shipped minimal connector setup, FTP network mounting is enabled by default, so a cross-site request can force an elFinder instance to mount an attacker-chosen FTP endpoint in the victim's session and cause the server to initiate an outbound FTP connection without the `X-elFinder-CSRF` token that other state-changing commands require.

This was confirmed locally against `Studio-42/elFinder` at commit `ec5f811dc321a053085b994966f553eaaab58721`, corresponding to the repository's documented stable release `2.1.69` / API revision `2.1.69`.

### Details The connector has an explicit allowlist of commands that require CSRF validation in `php/elFinderConnector.class.php:79-92`. That list includes state-changing commands such as `mkdir`, `mkfile`, `paste`, `put`, `rename`, `rm`, `upload`, `archive`, `extract`, `resize`, and `chmod`, but it omits `netmount`. The enforcement point in `php/elFinderConnector.class.php:376-381` calls `validateCsrfToken()` only when the command appears in that list.

`netmount` is a first-class connector command declared in `php/elFinder.class.php:248-278`, specifically `php/elFinder.class.php:263`, with attacker-controlled `protocol`, `host`, `path`, `port`, `user`, `pass`, `alias`, and `options` arguments. Its implementation in `php/elFinder.class.php:1560-1660` resolves the requested network driver, copies request…
