CVE-2026-53961 Jul 09, 2026
Discourse AWS SES Bounce Webhook Bypass <2026.6.0 via unbound SNS TopicArn Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to 2026.6.0, 2026.5.1, 2026.4.2, and 2026.1.5, the AWS SES bounce webhook at POST /webhooks/aws verified that SNS messages were signed by Amazon but did not bind them to trusted TopicArn values, allowing any AWS account holder to publish validly signed forged Bounce notifications that revoke a targeted user email. This issue is fixed in versions 2026.6.0, 2026.5.1, 2026.4.2, and 2026.1.5.
Discourse
CVE-2026-55420 Jul 09, 2026

CVE-2026-47264 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse <2026.1.4, <2026.3.1, <2026.4.1 Tag Group Leak by DetailedTagSerializer Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, DetailedTagSerializer#tag_group_names returned every tag group a tag belonged to without filtering against the requesting user's visibility. With SiteSetting.tags_listed_by_group enabled, anonymous and unprivileged users hitting TagsController#info (which is exempt from requires_login) could read the names of tag groups restricted to specific user groups or non-visible categories. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-47263 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse MsgBus Exposes Webhook Events (<=2026.4.1) Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, the MessageBus.publish call for /web_hook_events/<id> in Jobs::RedeliverWebHookEvents did not pass group_ids, leaving the channel readable by any authenticated user (or anonymous user on instances where login_required is disabled). Webhook IDs are sequential integers and trivially enumerable. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-45775 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse pathtraversal backup download before 2026.1.4 Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, a path traversal vulnerability in Discourse backup handling could allow an authenticated administrator on one site in a multisite deployment to access backup files belonging to another site when backups are stored locally. In affected configurations, an admin on Site A could potentially retrieve sensitive backup data from Site B (same host, multisite) by crafting a backup download request with a traversal payload. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-45085 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse Chat Plugin Authorization/Disclosure Flaw (2026.1.02026.4.0) Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, four authorization/disclosure issues in the chat plugin (one also involving discourse-calendar): read-only category users could create chat threads, self-deleted chat messages could be restored by their author after channel access was revoked, moderators reviewing a flagged chat message were shown the channel's current last_message (often unrelated DM content), and calendar event payloads exposed the attached chat channel and its last message to viewers without chat access (including anonymous users). This affects sites with the chat plugin enabled; the calendar issue additionally requires discourse-calendar. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44785 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse AI explain permission bypass before v2026.4.1 Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, the AI "explain" helper only checks can_see? on the post being explained, not its reply_to_post, so any authenticated user with access to the AI helper could read the raw contents of a hidden parent post by invoking "Explain" on a reply to it. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44784 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse 2026.12026.4.1: Group Owners Leak SMTP Credentials in History Log Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, group owners who are not necessarily admins or moderators can view a group's outgoing email/SMTP credentials in plaintext via the group history log (/groups/:name/logs.json). Affected fields: email_password, email_username, smtp_server, smtp_port, smtp_ssl_mode. The most sensitive item is the SMTP password, which an owner could use to send mail as the group from outside Discourse. This impacts sites that have configured per-group SMTP credentials and granted group ownership to users who should not have access to those credentials. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44783 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse 2026.x Whispers Reply Auth Bypass Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, a flaw in how replies to whisper posts are handled allows authenticated users outside the groups configured in whispers_allowed_groups to post into a topic's staff-only whisper channel. The injected content is visible to whisperers (typically staff) alongside legitimate whispers. Only sites that have whispers enabled are affected. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44782 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse GrpPostSer: Misnamed Predicate Leaks Names (v2026.1.0-<2026.1.4) Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, GroupPostSerializer declared include_user_long_name? as the predicate for its :name attribute, but AMS looks for include_name?. The misnamed predicate was never called, so object.user.name was always serialized regardless of SiteSetting.enable_names. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44780 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse ReviewableQueuedPostSerializer raw_email leak 2026.13.0 Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, ReviewableQueuedPostSerializer unconditionally included payload["raw_email"] for posts that arrived via incoming email. Category moderation group members reaching the review queue could therefore read the full inbound email source (headers, sender trace, MUA, body) without being in view_raw_email_allowed_groups the trust boundary that gates the dedicated raw-email endpoint. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44779 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse Bot Debug Log Disclosure v2026.1.0-2026.1.4 Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, bot debug endpoints disclose whisper translation audit logs. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-44786 Jun 12, 2026
Discourse MessageBus Unscoped Chat Pub (2026.1.3) Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0-latest to before 2026.4.1, chat events for public category channels are published to MessageBus without permission scoping, so any MessageBus subscriber without chat enabled could receive chat message payloads in real time. This issue has been patched in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1, and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-34154 May 19, 2026

In versions prior to 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1, a vulnerability in the discourse-subscriptions plugin allows users to gain access to subscription-gated groups without completing payment. This issue has been fixed in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-33514 May 19, 2026

In versions prior to 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1, an authenticated user on a Discourse instance with the form templates feature enabled can read the name and structured content of form templates that are intended exclusively for categories they are not authorized to access. Impact is limited to disclosure of site configuration metadata. This issue has been fixed in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1.
Discourse
CVE-2026-32244 May 19, 2026
Discourse AI summary cache leak pre-2026.1.4/3.1/4.1/5.0-latest.1 Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. In versions prior to 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1, outdated cached AI summaries can leak removed content to anonymous and unprivileged users who cannot regenerate summaries. This issue has been fixed in versions 2026.1.4, 2026.3.1, 2026.4.1 and 2026.5.0-latest.1. To work around this issue, restrict summary generation by tightening the allowed groups on the summarization Personas.

CVE-2026-32607 Mar 31, 2026
Discourse <2026.1.3/2.2/3.0 XSS via hidden prioritize_full_name_in_ux Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0-latest to before 2026.1.3, 2026.2.0-latest to before 2026.2.2, and 2026.3.0-latest to before 2026.3.0, when the hidden prioritize_full_name_in_ux site setting is enabled (defaults to false, requires console access to change), user and group display names are rendered without HTML escaping in several assignment-related UI paths. This allows users with assign permission to inject arbitrary HTML/JavaScript that executes in the browser of any user viewing an affected topic.
