Description
Lychee is a free, open-source photo-management tool. Prior to 7.5.4, a SQL operator-precedence bug in SharingController::listAll() causes the orWhereNotNull('user_group_id') clause to escape the ownership filter applied by the when() block. Any authenticated non-admin user with upload permission who owns at least one album can retrieve all user-group-based sharing permissions across the entire instance, including private albums owned by other users. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.5.4.
