Technical details

An authentication bypass in the has_website_permission function failed to check the published status of certificate documents, allowing any user to read or print unpublished certificates via the website API. The vulnerability requires only network access and no user interaction beyond requesting the certificate. The fix adds a check for doc.published to the permission logic, restricting read/print access to published certificates only.
