Warning
File Browser is archived on 2026-09-01. The last planned release has already shipped. There will be no further releases, bug fixes, or security fixes.
File Browser provides a file managing interface within a specified directory and it can be used to upload, delete, preview and edit your files. It is a create-your-own-cloud-kind of software where you can just install it on your server, direct it to a path and access your files through a nice web interface.
Background: Update On File Browser, March 2026.
Security
Published advisories are listed under security advisories, and reporting instructions are in SECURITY.md. This project has known security issue classes that remain unaddressed and will not be fixed:
- Command execution, runner, and hooks (opt-in, disabled by default, #5199)
- Session and JWT handling (#5216)
If you keep running File Browser, treat it as unmaintained software:
- Do not expose it directly to the internet. Put it behind a reverse proxy that terminates TLS and performs its own authentication.
- Keep the command runner disabled. It is off by default, so leave it off. See #5199 and
docs/command-execution.md. - Run it unprivileged, inside a container, with only the directory you intend to serve mounted into it.
Documentation
Documentation on how to install, configure, and build this project lives in docs in this repository.
