NVD Description

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

Nextcloud Server before 9.0.52 & ownCloud Server before 9.0.4 are not properly verifying restore privileges when restoring a file. The restore capability of Nextcloud/ownCloud was not verifying whether a user has only read-only access to a share. Thus a user with read-only access was able to restore old versions.
