Discourse has moderator privilege escalation via arbitrary post_id in suspend/silence endpoint

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Versions prior to 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 allow a moderator to edit site policy documents (ToS, guidelines, privacy policy) that they are explicitly prohibited from modifying. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch. No known workarounds are available.
