Issues with download folder & file permission in admidio-3.2 & admidio-3.3.1

Dear All,

I see permission related issues where user is able to delete folder/files created by administrator or other users.

As you can see in attached screenshot, I logged in as my user and easily able to delete folders/files created by administrator or any other user which shouldn't be the case. I have tested this in admidio-3.2 and admidio-3.3.1 version..

Delete / edit option should only be visible to the folder owners and greyed out to other members. In other words user should be able to modify/delete only his own folders or files but not other folders/files created by other users/administrator etc..

I request to consider to fix this in upcoming or future releases.

Dear All,

I did some more testing. Though there are workarounds, folder read write permission is still the issue..

inheriting permission from parent folder doesn't look to be an ideal solution.

My suggestion is to use permission concept (as in Linux)where subfolder permissions shouldn't depend on parent folder. folder or subfolder options can be given such as allow/deny upload or visibility..

I request respective developers to consider fixing this in upcoming or future releases.

Thanks,
Amitabh
