 Hello,

A lot of modern camera output pictures files with a capital extension .JPG .PNG. As the allowed files exceptions is case sensitive, those files are blocked by the default list if not added.

Having this problem with our customer sites very often we are thinkind about adding the capial version of common pictures extensions to the exceptions list but before doing that we would like to know if there is any security reason behind the fact that they are not included in the default list.


Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

yes, you can add them, there are no downsides. We added the extension type in lowercase only because it's the most common.
