GHSA-c2xx-cjmh-9q8f: Wagtail: Improper restriction handling on descendant collections in Documents and Images API

August 20, 2026

The Documents and Images API V2 incorrectly listed items in descendants of private collections, which should inherit the view restrictions defined on their ancestors. A user with access to the API could see the filename and name of documents and images in these descendant collections.
