FKIE_CVE-2023-26510

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2023-03-05 22:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 05:43
Severity
5.7 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
Summary
Ghost 5.35.0 allows authorization bypass: contributors can view draft posts of other users, which is arguably inconsistent with a security policy in which a contributor's draft can only be read by editors until published by an editor. NOTE: the vendor's position is that this behavior has no security impact.
