Unauthenticated draft disclosure via missing authorization
Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in BlazeThemes Newsmatic 1.3.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to read draft posts and post content. The newsmatic_filter_posts_load_tab_content handler returns queried post content without enforcing the visibility rules that protect unpublished drafts. No authentication is required, and the consequence is limited to disclosure of draft and other post content.
