Description

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2, unauthenticated users can determine whether a specific user is a member of a private group by observing changes in directory results when using the `exclude_groups` parameter. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch. As a workaround, disable public access to the user directory via Admin → Settings → hide user profiles from public.

Affected configurations

• discourse discourse (>= 2026.1.0 < 2026.1.2) • discourse discourse (>= 2026.2.0 < 2026.2.1) • discourse discourse 2026.3.0
