Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-11 15:30 – Updated: 2024-10-11 15:30

Details

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. The issue was partially fixed in version 2.3.8 and fully fixed in 2.3.9

Severity ?

6.5 (Medium)
