This is due to the atb_shortcode_handler() function fetching an arbitrary post by attacker-supplied ID and, in the 'publish' branch, calling displayContent() with no capability check and no validation that the post's post_type is the plugin's own CPT or is otherwise viewable (is_post_type_viewable()). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read the rendered block content of any published post, including posts of non-public custom post types (public=false, show_in_rest=false) that WordPress would otherwise hide from direct URLs and the REST API.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-862"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/animated-text-block/tags/1.2.6/plugin.php#L132","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/animated-text-block/tags/1.2.6/plugin.php#L142","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/animated-text-block/tags/1.2.6/plugin.php#L163","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3767751%40animated-text-block&new=3767751%40animated-text-block","https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/7163be31-8f55-45ba-8364-e84a3e636d5b?source=cve"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-28T04:42:17.651371610+00:00"},"epss":null,"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
