Unauthenticated content disclosure via unrestricted REST requests
Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Improper access control in s2Member 230815 and earlier allows remote attackers to read restricted posts and pages through the WP REST API. The plugin's REST request handling fails to apply configured s2Member access restrictions before WordPress returns post or page content. No authentication is required; exposure is limited to content that site operators intended s2Member to protect.
