Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Wagtail versions 6.0.0 up to but not including 6.0.3 are vulnerable when a model exposed through wagtail.contrib.settings or ModelViewSet has a FieldPanel permission restriction on one or more fields. A user who has edit permission on the model but not on the restricted field can craft a POST request to change that field's value; ordinary site visitors and users without model edit access cannot exploit it. Upgrade to Wagtail 6.0.3 or 6.1. For ModelViewSet, registering the model as a snippet is a workaround; no workaround is available for wagtail.contrib.settings.
