Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Page Restriction WordPress (WP) – Protect WP Pages/Post plugin versions up to, and including, 1.3.6

Description The issue allows unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive data from posts restricted to higher-level roles, such as administrators, via the WordPress core search feature. This makes it possible for attackers to access sensitive information that should be protected.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.3.6, update to a version later than 1.3.6 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the WordPress core search feature until a patch is available.
