It depends under which context the query is run.

Well its a simple

[CODE]
CREATE TABLE tmp_table (line varchar(8000))

bulk INSERT tmp_table FROM '\\172.92.11.2\DOCM\f\y\e\4707908.txt'
[/CODE]

Could it be the user has not the proper permissions ?

The roles the user has at the moment is public & db_owner ...

should it have more like access_admin, data_writer .. etc .. ?

The file and folder in the query need to know that the user running the query has access to the file and folder.
So yes, it's security issue.

Does sql service startup account have permission to access that file?
