CVE-2023-40020

Improper Authentication in PrivateUploader

PrivateUploader is an open source image hosting server written in Vue and TypeScript.

The response would be a 403 with ADMIN_ONLY, however, next() would call leading to any updates/changes in the route to process. This issue has been addressed in version 3.2.49. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
