Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Directus 7 versions prior to 2.3.0

Description The issue concerns the lack of validation for uploaded files, allowing unauthenticated users to access them directly, regardless of the file extension or MIME type. This is demonstrated by the ability to upload and access the EICAR Anti-Virus Test File.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.3.0, update to version 2.3.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the file upload feature until the update is applied.
