| Description | ApostropheCMS is an open-source Node.js content management system. Prior to 4.33.0, the core page REST API reads full page documents with .permission(false) in getOne and in the all=1 tree dump, bypassing page-type viewRole, visibility: private, and visibility: loginRequired checks. Unauthenticated visitors and low-privilege contributors can read admin-only and non-public page content by _id/slug. This issue is fixed in version 4.33.0. |
