Summary
The Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress, in all versions up to and including 4.62.0, lacks an authorization check. Unauthenticated remote attackers can enumerate and render published post types not meant for public listing, including Flamingo CF7 submission records that contain submitter names, email addresses, phone numbers, messages and IP addresses. Exploitation requires a Posts or Advanced Posts widget with 'Is Archive Template' enabled, and the nonce that protects the second endpoint is printed on every frontend page, so it does not stop attackers.

Description from the CNA
The Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.62.0 This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate and render arbitrary published post types not intended for public listing — including Flamingo CF7 submission records containing submitter names, email addresses, phone numbers, full messages, and IP addresses — and perform meta_query boolean-oracle reads against the postmeta of any published post. Exploitation requires that a Posts or Advanced Posts widget on the site has 'Is Archive Template' enabled, which is the standard Jupiter X archive-template configuration used by most Jupiter X sites; additionally, the nonce verified by the second endpoint is minted via wp_create_nonce and printed on every frontend page as ravenTools.nonce, rendering it ineffective as an authorization barrier.
