Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

ApostropheCMS versions before 4.34.0 (npm package apostrophe) have a flaw in the single-page REST endpoint GET /api/v1/@apostrophecms/page/:id, which does not apply page type viewRole restrictions or viewPermission field-level redaction that the list endpoint enforces. An attacker needs a valid editor-level account and a document _id, which they could know or guess, and could then read the full content of admin-only pages and fields gated by viewPermission. Upgrade to apostrophe 4.34.0 or later, which contains the fix.
