The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that a FluentBoards board has been shared via the plugin's public, token-shared board feature; against such a shared board, an unauthenticated remote attacker can request member data and receive the members' email addresses (typically including administrators). The limiting factor is that only boards actively exposed through public token sharing are affected - boards that are not publicly shared do not leak data - so the realistic attack surface is confined to sites using the share-link feature on FluentBoards versions 1.95 through before 2.1.0. No authentication, user interaction, or non-default server settings beyond enabling board sharing are needed.

Impact

All signals point to a genuine but low-to-moderate priority information-disclosure issue rather than a critical exposure. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, base 5.3) is internally consistent with the description: a network-reachable, unauthenticated, low-complexity read of member email addresses, with only confidentiality impact (C:L) and no integrity or availability effect. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC are present in the provided data, so there is no evidence of active or automated exploitation - this is a targeted-value leak (harvesting admin/member emails for phishing or credential-stuffing target lists), not a widespread mass-exploitation candidate. The one caveat limiting real-world exposure is that the leak only occurs through the plugin's public token-shared board feature, meaning a board must actually be shared via a public token link for the disclosure to trigger; that gate is not reflected in the AC:L rating but materially narrows the affected population. No conflicting signals across sources: WPScan (reporter), NVD, and EUVD agree on scope and the 5.3 rating.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker discovers or is given a FluentBoards public token-share link for a board and requests the shared board's member data without authenticating; the response includes the email addresses of the board's members, which typically include the site's administrators. The attacker uses the harvested admin emails to craft targeted phishing or credential-stuffing attacks. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, and exploitation requires low complexity once a shared-board token/link is known.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 23, 2026

Unauthenticated information disclosure in the FluentBoards WordPress plugin (versions 1.95 through before 2.1.0) lets remote attackers retrieve the email addresses of a shared board's members - typically including site administrators - by querying the plugin's public, token-shared board endpoint. Exploitation requires only that a board has been exposed via the plugin's share-link feature; no credentials or user interaction are needed, consistent with the CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N vector and a confidentiality-only impact (C:L). No public exploit code has been identified and the issue is not confirmed as actively exploited (not in CISA KEV), but the low EPSS-relevant barrier and the administrative-email exposure make it a useful reconnaissance primitive for follow-on phishing or credential attacks against FluentBoards sites that use public board sharing.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade FluentBoards to version 2.1.0 or later - 2.1.0 is the first release that properly restricts member data returned by the public token-shared board feature, and it closes the disclosure path identified by WPScan. Until the upgrade can be staged, the most effective compensating control is to disable public board sharing entirely (remove or leave unused the plugin's share-link/public board capability) and to revoke or regenerate any existing share tokens, accepting that legitimate external stakeholders will lose anonymous board access and must instead be given authenticated WordPress accounts with appropriate roles. If public sharing must remain for business reasons, treat every shared board URL as a public artifact: remove administrator and privileged accounts from shared boards' member lists, avoid using project members whose email addresses are sensitive, and place an edge/WAF rule or CDN cache-bypass in front of the shared-board endpoint so leaked member responses are not stored by intermediaries - noting this reduces but does not eliminate exposure because the endpoint itself still returns the data. After patching, confirm the plugin version in wp-admin/plugin list and, if a cache or CDN fronts the site, purge cached responses for previously public share URLs.

Technical ContextAI · show details

FluentBoards is a WordPress project/kanban management plugin whose 'public, token-shared board' feature exposes a board to anyone holding a share token, without requiring a WordPress account. The root cause is CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor): the member-data response returned by that shared-board endpoint is not properly restricted, so the serialization/response layer emits member records - including email addresses - to unauthenticated callers instead of limiting output to non-sensitive display fields (name, avatar, role label). There is no authorization check failure in the classic sense (the share token is valid by design); the flaw is that the data projection over that trusted-but-public context is over-broad. CPE/version data place the affected range at FluentBoards 1.95 up to, but not including, 2.1.0, meaning earlier 1.x releases may not contain the vulnerable public-share member endpoint at all, and 2.1.0 restores proper field restriction. Because the leak occurs on a public endpoint with no authentication, caching layers or CDNs in front of WordPress can also retain the leaked responses.
