GHSA-x76w-8c62-48mg: Craft CMS: Authenticated "assets/preview-thumb" discloses signed fallback transform preview link to CP users without asset-view permission
Summary
A user with Control Panel access but without permission to view a target private asset can call assets/preview-thumb and receive preview HTML that contains a signed fallback transform link for that private asset.
Details
Root-cause analysis:
1. The endpoint accepts an attacker-controlled assetId.
2. Asset is resolved, and thumbnail HTML is returned.
3. No explicit asset-view permission check is performed before preview generation.
Impact
Type:
1. Missing authorization
2. Unauthorized preview-link disclosure
Affected deployments:
1. Craft sites with control panel users who have partial permissions and private assets.
Security consequence:
1. A control panel user without asset-view permission can still obtain signed preview transform link data for private assets.
2. This may increase private asset exposure risk depending on deployment and endpoint chaining.
