Discourse is missing Cache-Control response header on error responses

Published Oct 28, 2025 · Updated Oct 29, 2025 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Discourse is an open source discussion platform. Version before 3.6.2 and 3.6.0.beta2, default Cache-Control response header with value no-store, no-cache was missing from error responses. This may caused unintended caching of those responses by proxies potentially leading to cache poisoning attacks. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.6.2 and 3.6.0.beta2.
