Descriptions

Discourse is an open source discussion platform. Versions 2.8.2 and prior in the `stable` branch, 2.9.0.beta3 and prior in the `beta` branch, and 2.9.0.beta3 and prior in the `tests-passed` branch are vulnerable to a data leak. Users can request an export of their own activity. Sometimes, due to category settings, they may have category membership for a secure category. The name of this secure category is shown to the user in the export. The same thing occurs when the user's post has been moved to a secure category. A patch for this issue is available in the `main` branch of Discourse's GitHub repository and is anticipated to be part of future releases.

Discourse es una plataforma de debate de código abierto. Las versiones 2.8.2 y anteriores en la rama "stable", versiones 2.9.0.beta3 y anteriores en la rama "beta", y versiones 2.9.0.beta3 y anteriores en la rama "tests-passed" son vulnerables a un filtrado de información. Los usuarios pueden solicitar una exportación de su propia actividad. A veces, debido a la configuración de la categoría, pueden tener una pertenencia a una categoría segura. El nombre de esta categoría segura es mostrada al usuario en la exportación. Lo mismo ocurre cuando el post del usuario ha sido movido a una categoría segura. Un parche para este problema está disponible en la rama "main" del repositorio GitHub de Discourse y esta anticipado que forme parte de futuras versiones
