This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of a security vulnerability discovered in CapCut (a short-video editing mobile/web app), the impact and exploitability of the bug, and a step-by-step remediation plan suitable for a bug-bounty submission and for developers to implement. The vulnerability is treated generically as an insecure file-handling / arbitrary file upload leading to remote code execution (RCE) and/or unauthorized access — a common high-impact class for media/web apps. Replace specifics (endpoints, parameter names, PoC payloads) with your actual findings before submission.
