Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to delete other users' shared links.

The vulnerability exists due to authorization bypass through user-controlled key in the share deletion function in /http/share.go when handling share deletion requests by share hash. A remote user can send a crafted delete request for another user's share hash to delete other users' shared links.

The issue affects the shareDeleteHandler because it does not compare the share owner's user ID with the current authenticated user's ID before deletion.
