recent, top, popular & unread do not respect read rights

[Jürgen]

at least with version

1.15.4 (have not tested it on 1.15.5 and 1.16) we recognized a behaviour which we did not expected:

If recent, top, popular and unread posts are shown these do no respect the rights which are set for certain categories. Every guest was capable to see any post and furthermore could use this to list the categories

Please provide reproduction steps. For example on this forum the Testing Ground category is not visible to guests. https://community.nodebb.org/category/4/testing-ground. So if you browse this forum as a guest it doesn't show up on /recent and it won't be visible in the category dropdown on that page either.

Thx for the fast reply. I'll re-check and provide you with more information

Your quick reply (and example) made it easier for us to identify it as a layer 8 problem. Our subcategories did not have the expected rights. Sorry for raising this as a bug!
