Private-post disclosure via unchecked cloning key
Published Jun 29, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Authorization bypass in Carlos Fazenda Fast Page & Post Duplicator 6.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read private posts. The content_clone function accepts a user-controlled post key without validating authorization before cloning the referenced post into a readable draft. Author-level access is required, and the documented consequence is disclosure of private post content without availability impact.
