CVE-2025-49845

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. The visibility of posts typed `whisper` is controlled via the `whispers_allowed_groups` site setting. Only users that belong to groups specified in the site setting are allowed to view posts typed `whisper`. However, it has been discovered that users of versions prior to 3.4.6 on the `stable` branch and prior to 3.5.0.beta8-dev on the `tests-passed` branch can continue to see their own whispers even after losing visibility of posts typed `whisper`. This issue is patched in versions 3.4.6 and 3.5.0.beta8-dev. No known workarounds are available.

Summary		(es) Discourse es una plataforma de discusión de código abierto. La visibilidad de las publicaciones con el tipo "whisper" se controla mediante la configuración del sitio "whispers_allowed_groups". Solo los usuarios que pertenecen a los grupos especificados en la configuración del sitio pueden ver las publicaciones con este tipo. Sin embargo, se ha descubierto que los usuarios de versiones anteriores a la 3.4.6 en la rama "stable" y anteriores a la 3.5.0.beta8-dev en la rama "tests-passed" pueden seguir viendo sus propios "whisper" incluso después de perder la visibilidad de las publicaciones con este tipo. Este problema se ha corregido en las versiones 3.4.6 y 3.5.0.beta8-dev. No se conocen soluciones alternativas.
