CWE-200 — Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

This CVE was published May 13, 2026 and is one of 11 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

Update Broadstreet to a release after 1.53.1, or disable and remove it until a fixed version is available.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
