CVE-2026-32951: Discourse lets logged‑in users view draft titles
CVE-2026-32951 · published 7 months ago
Summary
In certain recent versions of the Discourse discussion platform, a signed‑in user could see the titles of draft topics that are meant to be private by sending a special link with a category identifier. This could expose internal planning information. Updating to the latest Discourse release (2026.1.3, 2026.2.2, or 2026.3.0) resolves the issue.
What to do
- Update discourse to version 2026.2.2.
