Whitelist not filtering out songs missing tag - divinecomedian - 2025-09-17

I have a user "kids" set up with a whitelist having one tag "maturity-kids". This should prevent "kids" from accessing anything that does not have the tag "maturity-kids". However, I have some music albums with the tag "maturity-kids" that have songs without "maturity-kids". These songs are still accessible by user "kids" when they should not be.

It looks like there's an issue when a song's tags don't match the album's tags. The whitelist works fine for movies and shows.

I'm on server version 10.10.7

The only way I've found to work around this is to also have a blacklist on the user and apply one of the blacklist tags to the individual songs. This is not ideal because it defeats the purpose of having a whitelist.
