impact: |
Anonymous users can access publicly shared files and folders without authentication, potentially exposing sensitive internal documents.

Disable guest access via Admin Console (Port 8443) > System > Web Application > uncheck "Allow Guest access".
Ensure Filr instances exposed to the internet do not have guest access enabled.
