Description
The Awesome Support – WordPress HelpDesk and Support Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the editor_html() function in all versions up to, and including, 6.1.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to view password protected and draft posts. CVE-2024-35741 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
