CVE-2024-52514 | Nextcloud Server allows users to copy folder that contain files that are blocked by the files access control

Nextcloud Server is a self hosted personal cloud system. After a user received a share with some files inside being blocked by the files access control, the user would still be able to copy the intermediate folder inside Nextcloud allowing them to afterwards potentially access the blocked files depending on the user access control rules. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgraded to 27.1.9, 28.0.5 or 29.0.0 and Nextcloud Enterprise Server is upgraded to 21.0.9.18, 22.2.10.23, 23.0.12.18, 24.0.12.14, 25.0.13.9, 26.0.13.3, 27.1.9, 28.0.5 or 29.0.0.

Base score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Impact Score source
4.1 3.1 MEDIUM
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:R)
A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:N)
Data isn’t meaningfully altered or forged.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
