Original description
The description as published by the source.
CVE: This vulnerability corresponds to CVE-2026-72810.
Summary
WebSocket sessions established through the publish surface (port 6808, RoleReader anonymous when Publish.Auth.Enable is false) are added to the same broadcast session pool as authenticated sessions. The kernel's broadcast functions push content events transactions carrying block DOM, document save/create, move/rename to every session in the pool with no role or publish-access filtering. As a result, an anonymous reader who holds a WebSocket connection open passively receives a real-time feed of every edit made in the workspace, including edits to password-protected, publish-forbidden, and unpublished documents. Because these events are delivered over the push channel and never pass through an HTTP handler, none of the publish-access filters that gate the HTTP endpoints apply.
Details
Session admission. HandleConnect admits the injected RoleReader publish token, and the session is registered via AddPushChan into the same sessions pool used for authenticated clients.
Unfiltered broadcast. The broadcast functions (Broadcast, broadcastOthers, broadcastOtherAppMains, …) write to every session in the pool with no role or publish-access check. The isPublish flag on a session is consulted only to send the "service closed" notice it is never used to gate content. Content events are pushed via PushModeBroadcast → Broadcast(),…
