Draft-post disclosure via unchecked search_posts access
Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in MasterStudy LMS 3.2.13 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read draft post titles and excerpts. The search_posts function returns matches from unpublished posts without checking whether the requesting account has permission to view them. Subscriber-level access is sufficient; disclosed data is limited to draft titles and excerpts, with no reported write or deletion capability.
