I am getting this too. A couple members reported being able to see the thread titles from an admin-only forum, though they got a permission error when clicking the link to the thread.
If you manually select the forums, no permission check will be performed. This is by design to improve performance.The threads widget does not follow user permissions.
Members see threads that they have no access to.
If you must select some private forums, use expression to limit the widget to some user groups.
