Bug #88175
Exception thrown when searching for files: You are not allowed to access the given folder

Description
After upgrading to TYPO3 9.5.5 while editors search in File list an exception is thrown.
It seems that the system searches files in file mounts that are not assigned to the editor.

Could you please add some information on the permissions set to storage and folder and on the permissions assigned to the user.
Updated by Chinnu Leela over 2 years ago
To explain the situation suppose two folder structure exist
FolderOne->abc.pdf
FolderTwo->abcdef.pdf
The editor has access permission only to 'FolderTwo'.
Once he/she searches 'abc' in data folder list, triggers an error
'You are not allowed to access the given folder: "FolderOne"'

The issue persists in TYPO3 9.5.6 release also.
Can you share the current status.

The problem still occurs on both 9.5.7 and 10.0.0-dev with the following Steps
1. Create a folder /fileadmin/Images
1.1 Upload in there a file e.g. sample.jpg
2 Create a folder /fileadmin/Images_2
2.1 Upload in there a file e.g. sample_other.jpg
3. Create a filemount "Images" that points to 1. (/fileadmin/Images)
4. Create a filemount "Images_2" that points to 2. (/fileadmin/Images_2)
5. Create a usergroup "Editors"
5.1 Assign only the filemount 4. ("Images")
5.2 Assign to it enough permissions (e.g. the "Filelist module)
6. Create a user "editor" and assign to it the group 5 ("Editors")
Test Execution¶
1. Switch to "Editor" user
2. Go to Filelist module
3. Try to search for "Sample"
Test results:¶
The exception
You are not allowed to access the given folder: "Images_2"
Is thrown
Expected results:¶
- no exception should be thrown
- the search should only be executed on the allowed folders.

I had this problem too. The filelist search tries to access files outside of the file mount.
Reproduced with 9.5.11
1. Searching (as editor) in fileadmin/user_upload/a (is filemount)
2. Tries to access file in fileadmin/user_upload/b/images/
It seems to me it is the same problem as Riccardo described.
