These are all public files, and the browser needs access to them. Offering file browsing isn't a problem. If there were any private files in here, I'd agree, but I'm not sure what about this is a security problem.

If an administrator wants to turn off file browsing, that's easy to do in their install, but isn't a Review Board issue.
