It is possible to create archives containing ../../ as a part of a file path, now it's famous as ZipSlip vulnerability, but it's an old bug.

It is impossible to upload .php files or .htaccess file using this method, but itas possible to create different files with "legal" extensions on a system and it may lead to remote code execution if a server runs with enough privileges, for example, to create cron jobs.
