Description Murray McAllister 2014-11-17 03:35:00 UTC
The upcoming 1.2.18 release of MantisBT will fix the following issue:

""
Due to an incorrect access check, by guessing the download URL correctly, unprivileged users can download files from a private project with restricted access to attachments, i.e. where $g_download_attachments_threshold / $g_view_attachments_threshold are set e.g. to 55 (developer), if another project to which they have access does not restrict attachments download.
""

This issue affects versions 1.2.17 and older.
