I need to put there a set of Ubercart images to make a bulk product import via feeds and .csv sheet.
If you want to upload files from UI you can use the elFinder file manager module. I've checked this module. Seems it's what you're looking for.
You can upload multiple files from admin UI itself. You can access the URL like follows
