What to do
Solution: Upgrade to GoAnywhere 7.8.0 or later.
Workaround: This issue occurs when the Web User does not have Create permission on Subfolders. It is a bug that happens when a user tries to upload a file to a directory that doesn’t exist yet (If they have permissions to create sub directories, then the non-existent directory would be created automatically). Note: This workaround requires supplying an additional permission that the Web User does not have in vulnerable configurations.
