Missing authorization in Liferay portal

Publisher and source text is retained separately from QFinch interpretation.

QFinch assessment

The Dynamic Data Mapping module in Liferay Portal 7.4.3.67, and Liferay DXP 7.4 update 67 does not limit Document and Media files which can be downloaded from a Form, which allows remote attackers to download any file from Document and Media via a crafted URL.
