Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose titles, paths, descriptions, tags and timestamps of unpublished draft or scheduled pages in Wiki.js.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization in the tree listing, backlinks, links and tag-count endpoints when handling requests for page metadata without enforcing publication-state visibility checks. A remote attacker can query these endpoints for paths accessible through read:pages, including as a guest where public reading is enabled, to obtain metadata about pages that are not live.

The disclosure is limited to page metadata; page bodies are not exposed.
