I don't understand the problem. The information you pointed to is all supposed to be publically viewable. Why should it not be?

If you ask one of your customers or a content manager of a site - show them one of such pages from their site - what do you think is the response? I don't think, you can tell someone this is not a bug, it's a feature.

From our view of a programmer, you are right, this links/pages do not show any secret information. But these are kind of internal pages of the system/the site. And an application should show ONLY pages that were created by a content manager and nothing else. The content manager should have FULL control over everything that is viewable to the whole world.

While the pages are ugly, this is a necessary evil.  If we change the privileges to something else, then when you use or reference those images and files on your site no one will be able to see it.  This isn't a bug.  It has to be this way.  Closing this.
