README

A Magento 2 module designed to address a potential security concern related to custom options. It ensures that custom option values are correctly validated before processing, preventing unauthorized 'file' type injections.

Description

This module introduces a before plugin for Magento\Catalog\Model\CustomOptions\CustomOption::getOptionValue().

The plugin performs the following checks:

1. Option Existence: Verifies that the option_id associated with the request exists in the database. If the option does not exist, a LocalizedException is thrown.
2. Type Validation: If the provided option_value is set to 'file', it confirms that the actual custom option type in Magento is indeed 'file'. If there is a mismatch (e.g., trying to pass 'file' to a text or drop_down option), a LocalizedException is thrown.

This prevents potential exploitation where an attacker might try to force Magento to process a file upload for an option that was not intended to handle files.
