CVE-2023-26510 (GCVE-0-2023-26510)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-03-05 00:00 – Updated: 2025-03-06 15:57
VLAI
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.
Severity
