Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to delete attachments and avatars across an instance.

The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization in the server-registered _FilesCollectionRemove_attachments and _FilesCollectionRemove_avatars DDP methods when handling unauthenticated DDP method calls. A remote attacker can invoke the methods with an empty selector to delete attachment records and physical files or avatar records.
