Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Tuleap is an Open Source Suite for management of software development and collaboration. Versions below 17.0.99.1762431347 of Tuleap Community Edition and Tuleap Enterprise Edition below 17.0-2, 16.13-7 and 16.12-10 allow attackers to access file release system information in projects they do not have access to. This issue is fixed in version 17.0.99.1762431347 of the Tuleap Community Edition and versions 17.0-2, 16.13-7 and 16.12-10 of Tuleap Enterprise Edition.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis
How this class of weakness works · CWE-639

The application uses a user-supplied identifier to look up a record without checking that the requester actually owns it, so changing the identifier in a request returns someone else's data. This is the classic insecure-direct-object-reference — the change-the-ID-in-the-URL bug. Remediation is authorizing every object access against the acting user, not merely confirming they are logged in.
