Description

Wagtail is an open source content management system built on Django. Prior to 7.0.7, 7.3.2, and 7.4, a CMS user without the ability to edit a page could still access the history report for the page, potentially resulting in disclosure of sensitive information. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.0.7, 7.3.2, and 7.4.
