DescriptionCVE.org

The Kirki WordPress plugin before 6.3.0 does not check whether the requester is allowed to read a post before rendering and returning its page content, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve the content of pages that are not publicly available, such as private, draft, pending and trashed ones.

The plugin renders and returns post content without first verifying whether the requesting party holds read permissions for that post, effectively bypassing WordPress's built-in visibility controls. …
