Default share when sharing online files in Outlook online
I can confirm this, the issue is only with the "email" right-click feature though. If you start composing a new message and attach the file, it's properly scoped to recipients only (both in OWA and Outlook). I guess they simply forgot to scope the right-click shortcut.
FWIW, you can still adjust the permissions after you've attached the file via the "email" right-click menu.

Hi Vasil.
I see the same behavior also if I start composing a new message and attach the file from the Group.
So in OWA, in any case, it defaults to "Anyone in my organization".
Also, if I want to change the permissions, I would like to see also the option "Restricted", which instead is not there...

That's what I see for Public groups, but for Private it's automatically scoped to recipients. Maybe it's just another functionality they're currently rolling out, so we see different experience in different tenants...

I hope that is the case, will monitor this. Can you confirm that you are also doing the following:
From within Outlook online after selecting a group, and then on the "Files" tab, you select a file, the click on "Email", as shown in image.

Yup, either click the button or right-click select Email. If you do it by starting a new conversation and attaching files from the compose window, it works as expected.
