Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.10%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An anonymous user that obtains a valid public link can get the associated hidden account username and password and proceed to login to the web application. Once logged into the web application with the hidden user account, some actions that were not available with the public share link can now be performed.
