Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-200.
Summary
The Recipe Card Blocks Lite WordPress plugin from 2.6.4 before 3.6.4 does not perform an authorization check before rendering posts through its recipe print feature. An unauthenticated remote attacker can read the title, ID and recipe content of unpublished posts, including drafts, pending, private and password-protected posts that contain a recipe card block. The optional "print only published posts" setting does not prevent this. A public exploit is linked in the references.

Description from the CNA
The Recipe Card Blocks Lite WordPress plugin before 3.6.4 does not perform an authorization check before rendering posts through its recipe print feature, allowing unauthenticated users to disclose the title, ID and recipe content of unpublished posts, including drafts, pending, private and password-protected posts, that contain a recipe card block. Its optional "print only published posts" protection does not prevent this, because the status check is applied to a different post than the one ultimately rendered.
