Good catch by bbaetz on this one...

It is possible for a user without access to private attachments to qualify a bug
query on the contents of an attachment to which that user is supposed to have no
access. (The user still cannot access the attachment itself)

The fix for this is small and low-risk.

Clearing security bit on fixed bug. This bug affected people who obtained a
development release between:

2002/08/19 21:17:20 to 2002/11/12 01:58:02 US/Pacific

(+/- about 15 minutes for the cvs mirror)

It was possible for a user to search on attachment titles/status, and get
results even if they couldn't see the attachment. Only existance or absense of
an attribute could be tested; the exact contents and desription of the summary
remained hidden. This only affected instalations who used the 'insidergroup'
feature.
