Official Description
Mahara 1.8 before 1.8.7 and 1.9 before 1.9.5 and 1.10 before 1.10.3 and 15.04 before 15.04.0 are vulnerable to users receiving watchlist notifications about pages they do not have access to anymore.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2017-1000143 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-200): Information exposure vulnerabilities leak sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
