Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the content delivery API output caching mechanism when handling requests to cached delivery API paths and queries. A remote attacker can send a request without a valid API key to disclose sensitive information.

Exploitation is possible only when API key authorization and output caching are enabled together, and the requested path and query have recently been cached following a request with a valid key.
