Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in the asset and blueprint file operations in the CMS and Tailor editor extensions. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to perform file operations such as create, delete, rename, move, or upload on theme assets or blueprint files by exploiting insufficient sub-permission checks. This is only exploitable if a backend user is explicitly granted editor access but has either editor.cms_assets or editor.tailor_blueprints permissions specifically withheld, which is an uncommon configuration.
