    web application root directory in affected versions. Exploitation requires prior knowledge of the target
    file's exact name and path; this vulnerability does not allow attackers to enumerate or list directory
    contents. In some configurations, there may be some sensitive files that make this highly severe. This
    vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to access specific files within the web
    application root directory in affected versions. The vulnerability must be addressed for affected versions
    of: -- Bitbucket Data Center, introduced in version >= 4.6.0, fix versions: 9.4.26, 10.2.8, 10.5.1 --
