Description

The Business Places plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the business-places/v1/places and place REST API endpoints in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1. This is due to a permission callback that always returns true, combined with responses that return the entire WP_Post object instead of a limited set of fields. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve every field of published business place posts, including the post content of the non-public location post type and the passwords of password-protected place posts.
