Summary

An access bypass vulnerability in Drupal 7.x before version 7.5 allows non-privileged users to download files attached to comments if they can access the direct URL. This occurs when a site enables file upload fields linked to any entity type or individual fields pointing to the private file directory, even when access to the parent node is denied. Proper configuration and permissions are necessary to mitigate this risk.

Affected Version(s)

drupal core 7.x before version 7.5
