Hello everybody,
some time ago I've overtaken maintainership of extension "NSFileRepo", which
allows to secure access to uploaded files based on namespace permissions set/managed by
extension "Lockdown". It worked well with LTS release 1.23, but unfortunately
due to some changes in "img_auth.php" [1] [2] it does not work in current LTS
release 1.27. I've tried to rewrite the extension to fit into the new system [3], but
it seems to be a hacky approach. There is already a Pabricator task (T140334 [4]) in which
I've asked for support (and also got some good responses), but I want to draw some
attention by writing to this mailing list. Any help, hints, comments are much
appreciated.
