Nextcloud is an open source content collaboration platform. In Nextcloud Server from versions 32.0.0 to before 32.0.9, and 33.0.0 to before 33.0.3, when a malicious user has access to a file share of a user, they could use this share token to also access the chunking upload directly and see temporary part files during on going uploads. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgraded to 32.0.9 or 33.0.3. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Enterprise Server is upgraded to 26.0.13.26, 27.1.11.25, 28.0.14.17, 29.0.16.16, 30.0.17.9, 31.0.14.5, 32.0.9 or 33.0.3
AnalysisAI
Unauthorized chunking upload access in Nextcloud Server allows an authenticated share recipient to read temporary part files during another user's active file upload. Affecting versions 32.0.0-32.0.8 and 33.0.0-33.0.2, the flaw stems from the WebDAV chunking upload collection failing to restrict directory listing or GET requests on intermediate upload objects when accessed via a share token - a boundary the fix explicitly closes by blocking reads on FutureFile and UploadFile node types. No public exploit has been identified and no CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the high confidentiality impact (CVSS C:H) means sensitive in-transit file contents are fully exposed to any malicious share recipient who times access during an active upload.
Technical ContextAI
Nextcloud's WebDAV layer uses a chunking upload v2 mechanism implemented in apps/dav/lib/Upload/ChunkingV2Plugin.php, backed by the SabreDAV library. When a user uploads a large file, chunks are written as temporary FutureFile and UploadFile objects under the /remote.php/dav/uploads/ collection. Prior to the fix, the UploadHome collection permitted child enumeration and the ChunkingV2Plugin registered no beforeMethod:GET guard on these intermediate node types - meaning any requester authenticating to the DAV layer via a share token (rather than a full user session) could list active upload sessions and retrieve partial file contents. CWE-284 (Improper Access Control) applies directly: the access control boundary between share-scoped tokens and the upload namespace was entirely absent. The published PR diff at https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/59780 confirms the fix adds a beforeGet hook throwing MethodNotAllowed for FutureFile and UploadFile nodes, sets disableListing = true on the root upload collection, and throws MethodNotAllowed on child enumeration in UploadHome. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:nextcloud:security-advisories:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: Nextcloud Server (Community) 32.0.9 or 33.0.3. Nextcloud Enterprise Server users should upgrade to the appropriate branch release: 26.0.13.26, 27.1.11.25, 28.0.14.17, 29.0.16.16, 30.0.17.9, 31.0.14.5, 32.0.9, or 33.0.3, as confirmed by the vendor advisory at https://github.com/nextcloud/security-advisories/security/advisories/GHSA-45pj-p7x7-4mhc. The upstream fix is available at https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/59780 and has been merged; patched release versions are confirmed by the vendor. Where immediate patching is not feasible, administrators can disable file sharing and share link creation entirely via Nextcloud admin settings under Sharing - this eliminates the share token attack surface but will break all legitimate external and internal share functionality, which is a significant operational trade-off. There is no known surgical workaround that blocks chunking upload access via share tokens while preserving normal share behavior without applying the patch.
