NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream drupal7 package and not the drupal7 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The File module in Drupal 7.x before 7.43 and 8.x before 8.0.4 allows remote authenticated users to bypass access restrictions and read, delete, or substitute a link to a file uploaded to an unprocessed form by leveraging permission to create content or comment and upload files.
