Description

The Ivory Search – WordPress Search Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.6 via the ajax_load_posts function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract text data from password-protected posts using the boolean-based attack on the AJAX search form
