Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WordPress versions prior to 3.0.5

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to read draft or private posts by modifying the attachment id parameter in the media uploader. This is due to a flaw in the wp-admin/async-upload.php file.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.5, update to version 3.0.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the media uploader to minimize the risk of exploitation.
