The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information disclosure vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-200. The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. Impacted is confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

FileRise is a self-hosted web-based file manager with multi-file upload, editing, and batch operations. Prior to 3.12.0, /api/totp_setup.php is callable from a session that has only passed the password check (state pending_login_user). When the target account already has TOTP configured, the endpoint decrypts and returns the user's existing TOTP secret inside the QR PNG instead of refusing or generating a new secret. An attacker who already possesses the victim's password can therefore retrieve the live TOTP secret, derive a valid one-time code, submit it to /api/totp_verify.php, and obtain a fully authenticated session without ever possessing the victim's authenticator device. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.12.0.
