## Description

The WZ Followed Posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the followed posts output cache in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.3, due to the plugin caching output that was generated for a visitor who had unlocked a password-protected post and serving that output to everyone. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read excerpts of password-protected posts after a visitor who knows the password has loaded a page whose followed posts list includes such a post. Excerpts and caching must both be enabled.
