Summary

LORIS (Longitudinal Online Research and Imaging System) is a self-hosted web application that provides data- and project-management for neuroimaging research. From 21.0.0 to before 27.0.3 and 28.0.1, while the document_repository frontend was restricting file access, the backend endpoint was not correctly verifying access permissions. A user could theoretically download a file that they should not have access to, if they know or can brute force the filename. This vulnerability is fixed in 27.0.3 and 28.0.1.
