Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization in the resourceGetHandler process. An attacker can access the full content of text files within their authorized scope by sending requests to the /api/resources endpoint, bypassing the intended download permission checks. This allows retrieval of sensitive information such as configuration files, credentials, and API tokens by users who should not have download access.
