Security
--------

[](#security)

It is important to note that if you use your own routes **you must protect your routes to package-filemanager in order to prevent unauthorized uploads to your server**. Fortunately, Laravel makes this very easy.

If, for example, you want to ensure that only logged in users have the ability to access the package-filemanager, simply wrap the routes in a group, perhaps like this:

```
Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth'], function () {
    Route::get('/package-filemanager', '\Foostart\Filemanager\controllers\LfmController@show');
    Route::post('/package-filemanager/upload', '\Foostart\Filemanager\controllers\UploadController@upload');
    // list all lfm routes here...
});
```

This approach ensures that only authenticated users have access to the package-filemanager. If you are using Middleware or some other approach to enforce security, modify as needed.

**If you use the package-filemanager default route, make sure the `auth` middleware (set in config/lfm.php) is enabled and functional**.
