Description

elFinder versions below 2.1.59 are vulnerable to a command injection
vulnerability via its archive functionality.

When creating a new zip archive, the `name` parameter is sanitized
with the `escapeshellarg()` php function and then passed to the
`zip` utility. Despite the sanitization, supplying the `-TmTT`
argument as part of the `name` parameter is still permitted and
enables the execution of arbitrary commands as the `www-data` user.
