CWE-616 (Incomplete Identification of Uploaded File Variables (PHP)) documents a weakness type used across vulnerability databases and security assessments. Use the sections below for definition, context, and mapped CVEs.
The PHP application uses an old method for processing uploaded files by referencing the four global variables that are set for each file (e.g. $varname, $varname_size, $varname_name, $varname_type). These variables could be overwritten by attackers, causing the application to process unauthorized files.
