Bug: files set to "registered" can be accessed in browser

Post by Suge1w »

Hello,

We're using version 2.1.9 within Joomla 2.5. Our files are set to "registered" but a user can guess the filename correctly in the browser, the file can be downloaded thus bypassing Phoca Download's access rights. How can this be resolved?

That worked. Very nice, thanks.

I'm interested to understand how this stops direct access to our files but maintains phoca download rights?

Hi, public visitors cannot access your server behind public_html but the php script can.
