Descriptions

Discourse is an open source platform for community discussion. In stable versions prior to 2.8.3 and beta versions prior 2.9.0.beta4 erroneously expose groups. When a group with restricted visibility has been used to set the permissions of a category, the name of the group is leaked to any user that is able to see the category. To workaround the problem, a site administrator can remove groups with restricted visibility from any category's permissions setting.

Discourse es una plataforma de código abierto para el debate comunitario. En versiones estables anteriores a 2.8.3 y en versiones beta anteriores a 2.9.0.beta4, son expuestos erróneamente los grupos. Cuando ha sido usado un grupo con visibilidad restringida para establecer los permisos de una categoría, el nombre del grupo es filtrado a cualquier usuario que pueda visualizar la categoría. Para mitigar el problema, el administrador del sitio puede eliminar los grupos con visibilidad restringida de la configuración de permisos de cualquier categoría
