CVE-2026-29188: File Browser's TUS Delete Endpoint Bypasses Delete Permission Check

March 4, 2026 (updated March 5, 2026)

A broken access control vulnerability in the TUS protocol DELETE endpoint allows authenticated users with only Create permission to delete arbitrary files and directories within their scope, bypassing the intended Delete permission restriction. Any multi-user deployment where administrators explicitly restrict file deletion for certain users is affected.
