GHSA-44px-qjjc-xrhq: Craft CMS: Authorized asset "preview file" requests bypass allows users without asset access to retrieve private preview metadata

March 26, 2026 (updated August 6, 2026)

An authenticated low-privileged user can call assets/preview-file for an asset they are not authorized to view and still receive preview response data (previewHtml) for that private asset.

The returned preview HTML included a private preview image route containing the target private assetId, even though canView was false for the attacker account.
