Impact

If-Modified-Since If-Unmodified-Since

Headers when used with anonymous requests by sending a random object name requests you can figure out if the object exists or not on the server on a specific bucket and also gain access to some amount of information such as

Last-Modified (of the latest version)
Etag (of the latest version) 
x-amz-version-id (of the latest version)
Expires (metadata value of the latest version)
Cache-Control (metadata value of the latest version)

This conditional check was being honored before validating if the anonymous access is indeed allowed on the metadata of an object.

    fix: information disclosure bug in preconditions GET (#19810)

    precondition check was being honored before, validating
    if anonymous access is allowed on the metadata of an
    object, leading to metadata disclosure of the following
    headers.

   

Last-Modified Etag x-amz-version-id Expires: Cache-Control: ```

although the information presented is minimal in nature,
and of opaque nature. It still simply discloses that an
object by a specific name exists or not without even having
enough permissions.

```

Users must upgrade to RELEASE.2024-05-27T19-17-46Z for the fix
