CVE-2024-0596Network attack vector

Subscriber-level content disclosure via missing editor_html authorization

Published Feb 10, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Missing authorization in Awesome Support 6.1.7 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to view protected and draft posts. The editor_html() function returns post editor content without checking whether the caller has permission to read the requested post. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, exposing password-protected and unpublished content without granting modification or service-interruption capability.
