CVE-2026-84302

Reviewable visibility filtering did not restrict private-message reviewables to the audience permitted to access the underlying private-message topic, allowing the moderator to read otherwise confidential content.

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.24%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to 2026.1.6, 2026.5.2, 2026.6.1, and 2026.7.0, Discourse AI reviewables associated with private messages could appear in the moderator review queue of a moderator who was not a participant in the message. Reviewable visibility filtering did not restrict private-message reviewables to the audience permitted to access the underlying private-message topic, allowing the moderator to read otherwise confidential content. Depending on the available reviewable action, the moderator could also modify the private message by closing its topic or deleting a post. Exploitation requires an authenticated moderator account and a pre-existing Discourse AI reviewable associated with a private message. This issue is fixed in versions 2026.1.6, 2026.5.2, 2026.6.1, and 2026.7.0.
