CVE-2023-25169 – Yearly Review Plugin leaking anonymised users data in discourse-yearly-review

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-25169

discourse-yearly-review is a discourse plugin which publishes an automated Year in Review topic. In affected versions a user present in a yearly review topic that is then anonymised will still have some data linked to its original account. This issue has been patched in commit `b3ab33bbf7` which is included in the latest version of the Discourse Yearly Review plugin. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may disable the `yearly_review_enabled` setting to fully mitigate the issue. • https://github.com/discourse/discourse-yearly-review/commit/b3ab33bbf7130fca54764cf0336395a8a1eeaf3c https://github.com/discourse/discourse-yearly-review/security/advisories/GHSA-x2r8-v85c-x3x7 • CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor •
