Wagtail is an open source content management system built on Django. Prior to versions 7.0.9, 7.3.4, 7.4.3, and 8.0rc2 on their respective release lines, the internal Pages admin API returns page fields declared in api_fields without sufficient access control, allowing a user with Wagtail admin access to retrieve restricted draft and live page content. This issue is fixed in versions 7.0.9, 7.3.4, 7.4.3, and 8.0rc2.
