# 3.1.9

## Upgrading

### File permissions

This release makes an important change to File DataObject permissions in order to close a vulnerability in
file modification privileges. In 3.1.8 and below, any part of a website where user interaction could
potentially modify a file (such as an UploadField being used on the frontend) permissions may not be
adequately checked, meaning in some cases non-authorised (or even non-authenticated) users could
make changes to assets. This is because the File DataObject reports that any user has canEdit
privileges on it.

By default the minimum necessary permission required by any user to modify files has been changed
to CMS_ACCESS_AssetAdmin. This permission value was historically required in 3.0 and has now been restored.

In order to update a site to 3.1.9 it may be necessary to make sure that this permission requirement still makes
sense to any business logic, and it may also be necessary to apply another permission. This can be
done by creating an extension to File which applies the custom permission.

E.g.

	:::php
	<?php
	class FileSecurityExtension extends DataExtension {
		public function canEdit($member) {
			return Permission::checkMember($member, 'MyCustomPermission');
		}
	}
