Summary
In Nextcloud Server before versions 32.0.9 and 33.0.3, sharing a folder or file with a team containing an external member automatically creates a public link that is invisible to the owner and cannot be revoked, granting full permissions.
Risk Assessment
Unintended creation of a public link can lead to unauthorized data access, modification, or leakage without the owner's knowledge.
Recommendation
Upgrade Nextcloud Server to version 33.0.3 or 32.0.9, which fix this vulnerability.
Other vulnerabilities in Nextcloud Server
See all- CVE-2026-45810Medium
Nextcloud Server before versions 31.0.12 and 32.0.3 has a missing check of a relation, allowing authenticated users with access to any file comment to read the content of all comments.
- CVE-2026-45691Medium
In Nextcloud Server before versions 32.0.9 and 33.0.3, a pre-2FA session cookie can be reused as a Bearer token to authenticate against DAV endpoints, bypassing mandatory two-factor authentication.
- CVE-2026-45690Medium
In Nextcloud Server before versions 32.0.9 and 33.0.3, an attacker with knowledge of a user's password can bypass two-factor authentication by extracting a temporary session token and replaying it via HTTP Basic Authentication.
- CVE-2026-45283Medium
Nextcloud Server from versions 32.0.0 to before 32.0.2, and 33.0.0 to before 33.0.1, the files_lock app did not properly validate the ownership of files when processing DAV lock and unlock requests. An authenticated user could lock or unlock files belonging to other users by targeting their absolute WebDAV paths. Additionally, lock tokens were disclosed to unauthorized callers in error responses, allowing attackers to remove token-based locks placed by other users' client applications. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Server is upgraded to 32.0.2 or 33.0.1. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Enterprise Server is upgraded to 31.0.14.4 or 32.0.2 or 33.0.1.
- CVE-2026-45282Medium
In Nextcloud Server before versions 32.0.9 and 33.0.3, an authenticated attacker can access attachments of link shares when knowing the share token, bypassing password protection or download restrictions.
- CVE-2026-45281High
An improper authorization vulnerability in the calendar backend of Nextcloud Server (versions 32.0.0-32.0.8 and 33.0.0-33.0.2) allows an authenticated attacker, knowing another user's principal URL, to gain full read and write access to that user's calendar.
- CVE-2026-45279Medium
In Nextcloud Server from versions 31.0.0 to before 31.0.14, and 32.0.0 to before 32.0.4, if {lang} is used in the template directory config value, non-admin users can in some cases copy arbitrary files (depending on unix permissions) into their own Nextcloud directory via a path traversal.
- CVE-2026-45157Medium
Nextcloud Server contains a vulnerability that allows a malicious user with access to a shared file to use the share token to directly access chunking uploads and view temporary part files during ongoing uploads. The issue affects versions from 32.0.0 to 32.0.8 and from 33.0.0 to 33.0.2.
- CVE-2023-39963High

The issue affects versions from 19.0.0 to 19.0.13.10, 20.0.14.15, 21.0.9.13, 22.2.10.14, 23.0.12.8, 24.0.12.5, 25.0.9, 26.0.4, and 27.0.1.
Original NVD description (English source)
Nextcloud is an open source content collaboration platform. From versions 32.0.0 to before 32.0.9, and 33.0.0 to before 33.0.3, when a user shares a folder or file with a Nextcloud Team that includes an external member (a person added via email address who does not have a Nextcloud account), the system automatically creates a public link for that external member. This public link is not displayed in the share section of the folder, so the folder owner has no knowledge of its existence. It is sent via email to the external member. It grants the same permissions (read, write, delete, reshare, download) as the Team’s access. An attacker who receives or intercepts this link can access, modify, delete, reshare, and download all data in the shared folder without any further authentication. The folder owner cannot see or revoke the link through the normal sharing interface. This issue has been patched in versions 32.0.9 and 33.0.3.
