What problem does it solve?
User-provided filenames can contain malicious characters that enable path traversal, shell injection, or filesystem corruption. Directly using user input in file operations is a security risk.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Whitelist-based sanitization: Allows only safe characters and preserves file extensions.
- Safe integration with Python file operations: Uses pathlib to avoid shell commands and prevent directory traversal.
- Real-world use case: When handling file uploads or renaming files in a web app, sanitize the input before saving to disk.
Quick Start
Use sanitize_filename to clean a user-provided filename before saving it.
