Description

Hello

Our users encountered an error in a specific case, when uploading files.

Here is a screenshot showing the 403-forbidden error after the upload:

Steps to reproduce

This error happens in a specific case when the user is not a member of the project.
Here are the steps to reproduce the issue:

  • The current user is NOT member of any project
  • The build-in role "non-member" has NO permission at all
  • In the project's members tab, a role is set for the member "non-member" and this role has permission to create and update issues

Logs

On the server side, here are the logs:

#2 Updated by Marius BALTEANU 4 months ago

  • Target version changed from 4.1.2 to 4.2.0

Moving this to a major version (4.2.0) because the proposed patch moves a method from one class to another.

#3 Updated by Marius BALTEANU 4 months ago

  • Target version changed from 4.2.0 to 5.0.0

Need more time to review and fix.
