Hi,

I stumbled over a security bug in owncloud with the result of data loss
or modification, depending on the configuration of owncloud.

It is possible for regular users of owncloud to overwrite files that are
shared by another owncloud user via WebDAV.

If version control is activated user1 could revert the file to its
previous state, but if it's not activated, user1's data is lost.

Find attached a patch that should fix the security flaw for owncloud
4.0.5debian2-1.

Cheers - Fuddl
