Description

The Create WordPress plugin before 2.5.4 does not perform an authorization check before returning content over one of its REST API routes, and that route additionally publishes the requested content as a side effect, allowing unauthenticated attackers to read unpublished content and to make it publicly available.

Affected WordPress components

A confirmed match is backed by the plugin or theme slug. A possible match is based on the product name only and should be verified.
