Post title disclosure via unfiltered post status
Published Apr 10, 2023 · Updated Feb 11, 2025
Information disclosure in Keetrax WP Tiles 1.1.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read private and draft post titles. The get_posts AJAX path accepts a wp-tiles shortcode with an attacker-controlled post_status and returns matching titles without filtering draft or private posts. Subscriber access is sufficient; the demonstrated exposure is limited to post titles, with no reported ability to read post bodies or modify content.
