Discourse leaks private topic metadata to non-authorized users
Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Versions prior to 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 have a vulnerability in an API endpoint that discloses private topic metadata of admin users to moderator users even if the moderators do not have access to the private topics. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch. No known workarounds are available.
