Hi, I have created an article in customer service Knowledge base and  gave read access to all contacts on Knowledge base level and on the knowledge article level I gave read access to contacts belonging to one particular account with name Demo. I added the article in widget link. When clicked on the widget it takes me to the knowledge article.

As an external user( this user belongs to Demo account) I am able to view the article but not able to download the attachment attached on the article.

You would have to configure ACL on attachment table to allow external users to download it

 

Refer the below link , as it is not advisable.Rather restrict by role
