Description

The WZ Followed Posts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the followed posts tracker (wherego_tracker AJAX action and wfp/v1/tracker REST route) in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.3, due to the tracker storing any client-supplied post ID without checking that the post is publicly viewable, and the followed posts list only checking the post type before rendering. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to make the titles, permalinks and, when excerpts are enabled, excerpts of draft, pending, scheduled and private posts appear in the public followed posts list.
