- Description
- Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.3, 2026.2.0-latest to before 2026.2.2, and 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.0, an authenticated moderator-level user could retrieve post content, topic titles, and usernames from categories they were not authorized to view. Insufficient access controls on a sentiment analytics endpoint allowed category permission boundaries to be bypassed. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.3, 2026.2.2, and 2026.3.0.
