Technical details

FileBrowser Quantum prior to versions 1.3.2-stable and 1.4.1-beta contains an information disclosure vulnerability (CWE-200). The flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to access sensitive metadata, specifically internal file system paths and source information. This occurs due to insufficient access controls on certain information-sharing components. Attackers can exploit this over the network without user interaction to facilitate reconnaissance. The issue is resolved in versions 1.3.2-stable and 1.4.1-beta.
