- Summary
- Discourse has a poll authorization bypass via post_id array parameter
- Details
-
Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2, an authorization bypass in the poll plugin allowed authenticated users to vote on, remove votes from, or toggle the open/closed status of polls they did not have access to. By passing post_id as an array (e.g. post_id[]=&post_id[]=), the authorization check resolves to the accessible post while the poll lookup resolves to a different post's poll. This affects the vote, remove_vote, and toggle_status endpoints in DiscoursePoll::PollsController. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch.
