Download document with URL from unauthorized shell

Hello all,

I just recently had a chance to test the use of the DE uuu_doc_attribute_url myself. Not sure if this had been considered during the design and thus expected, but actually the URL can be abused for downloading documents from shells that a user is not having access to. Here's what I did.

  • Using an admin user, I removed access for a user in a shell
  • Then I find a random document in the shell's Document Manager and copy its URL
  • Open a browser, then paste and run the copied URL
  • When it prompts me to login, I used the credentials for the user whose access has just been removed from the shell

Howdy, Stranger!
