Summary
Discourse: Replying to a whisper lets non-whisperers create staff-only whisper posts
Details

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. From versions 2026.1.0 to before 2026.1.4, 2026.3.0 to before 2026.3.1, and 2026.4.0 to before 2026.4.1, a flaw in how replies to whisper posts are handled allows authenticated users outside the groups configured in whispersallowedgroups 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.
