   * Project: Fieldable Panels Panes (FPP) [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2016-March-02
   * Security risk: 10/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Complex/A:None/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
   * Vulnerability: Access bypass

-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------

This module enables you to create fieldable entities that have special
integration with Panels.

The module doesn't check access permissions on a file when it is attached to
a field on a Fieldable Panels Panes entity that has been made private and
where the file field is set to store files using the private file storage
system.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that it is an uncommon use case
for the module.
