Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects FlintSH Flare. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Flare is a Next.js-based, self-hostable file sharing platform that integrates with screenshot tools. Prior to version 1.7.2, the thumbnail endpoint does not validate the password for password‑protected files. It checks ownership/admin for private files but skips password verification, allowing thumbnail access without the password. This issue has been patched in version 1.7.2.
