<![CDATA[Bug in the nodebb-plugin-link-preview plugin]]>When I am in a chat between users, and send a link to a forum page.
The link does not display the page but automatically redirects to login.
All users who received the link have access to the category, but the category is hidden and not accessible to all forum users.
I hope I understood.

If the plugin cached private, sensitive data, that is an information disclosure vulnerability.

The plugin acting as a guest and not a logged in user is a feature, not a bug.

Link preview accesses as guest and caches it so we wouldn't want to leak any info out accidentally.
