Protected-content disclosure via unchecked AI Forms shortcode
Published Apr 8, 2026 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in AI Engine Pro before 3.4.2 allows remote authenticated users to access protected WordPress content. The AI Forms shortcode renders Private Page or Post content without checking whether the requesting user is authorized to view it. Contributor-level access is required, and the demonstrated consequence is protected-content disclosure rather than site takeover or service interruption.
