Caveats

• Not tested for Windows/IIS environments
• This package has no security features however here are a few tips:
  • Check the file extensions of uploaded files and exclude all extensions you're not expecting (ie. *.php files)
  • Don't put the uploaded files in a publicly accessible directory (ie. in the public_html folder)
  • Obfuscate the file name on upload
