Description
The WordLift plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the 'wordlift_related_posts' AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 3.54.17, due to the endpoint returning complete database rows for related posts and not checking that the current user can read the post referenced by the 'post_id' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to retrieve every field of related published posts, including the passwords and content of password-protected posts.
