CVE-2025-14943: CWE-863 Incorrect Authorization in pr-gateway Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler
The Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.2. This is due to a misconfigured authorization check on the 'getShipItemFullText' function which only verifies that a user has the 'read' capability (Subscriber-level) and a valid nonce, but fails to verify whether the user has permission to access the specific post being requested. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to extract data from password-protected, private, or draft posts.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Blog2Social plugin for WordPress contains an authorization bypass vulnerability (CWE-863) due to insufficient permission checks in the 'getShipItemFullText' function. The function improperly relies on a generic 'read' capability and nonce validation without verifying user access rights to individual posts. As a result, authenticated users with low-level privileges can retrieve sensitive information from restricted posts, including password-protected, private, or draft content. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3, indicating medium severity. No official patch or vendor advisory is currently provided, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
Authenticated users with Subscriber-level privileges or higher can access sensitive content from posts that are intended to be restricted, such as password-protected, private, or draft posts. This leads to unauthorized disclosure of potentially sensitive information. There is no impact on integrity or availability reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the Blog2Social plugin if sensitive content exposure is a concern.
