CVE-2026-121458
Instatic before 0.0.21 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in its AI/MCP content read tools that allows low-privileged authenticated users with ai.chat and content.edit.own capabilities to access data rows belonging to other users by calling contentgetdocument and contentlistdocuments without the object-level authorization checks enforced by the normal HTTP API. Attackers can use the MCP interface to retrieve private or unpublished draft content and enumerate rows from the posts system table, resulting in cross-user data disclosure.
