## Description

The Brizy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.25. This is due to the front-end preview mode (Brizy_Public_Main::previewMode) registering the compiled-content output without checking post_password_required(). The plugin's Brizy templates then print that content directly through the 'brizy_template_content' action on home, archive, search and 404 views, and the 'the_content' filter swaps the compiled HTML into other Brizy posts listed on the page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the content of password-protected Brizy posts without knowing the password. Examples are requesting the post through the 'brizy_post' parameter on a non-singular view, or viewing a password-protected Brizy page that is set as the posts page.
