This flaw could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, as users can exploit the share functionality to read files beyond their intended scope. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to version 4.2.4 to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description
OpenList a file list program that supports multiple storage. Prior to 4.2.4, the share creation and update checks in server/handles/sharing.go use strings.HasPrefix(requested_path, user.BasePath) without enforcing a directory separator boundary. An authenticated user with CanShare permission and a BasePath such as /base can submit a sibling path such as /base2/secret.txt, create a share for the out-of-scope file, and use the public share download or list handlers to read data outside the assigned directory. This issue is fixed in version 4.2.4.
