Serious Privacy Issue When Copying Reports

Hi everyone,

I’ve identified a very serious privacy issue when using a report template copied from a private community. After copying this template and connecting it to my own data sources, I noticed that other users’ reports who also copied the same template started appearing on my main Looker Studio page. In other words, without any access or authorization, I gained visibility into reports belonging to other people, which represents a huge privacy and security risk.

Other people have also reported the same issue. In fact, I can currently see in my account reports with data and titles from completely unknown users, which confirms that this bug is spreading among everyone who copied the same template.

I believe this requires investigation and an urgent fix.

Thanks in advance for your attention!
