The vulnerability is classified as CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) and allows unauthorized access to attachments through the attachment move functionality. The vulnerability exists in the org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-attachment-api component and has a CVSS vector of CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, indicating network accessibility with low attack complexity and requiring low privileges (GitHub Advisory).

Additionally, the attachment is deleted from the source document (GitHub Advisory).
