Descriptions

Mattermost versions 9.9.x <= 9.9.1, 9.5.x <= 9.5.7, 9.10.x <= 9.10.0, 9.8.x <= 9.8.2 fail to sanitize user inputs in the frontend that are used for redirection which allows for a one-click client-side path traversal that is leading to CSRF in User Management page of the system console.

Las versiones de Mattermost 9.9.x &lt;= 9.9.1, 9.5.x &lt;= 9.5.7, 9.10.x &lt;= 9.10.0, 9.8.x &lt;= 9.8.2 no desinfectan las entradas del usuario en la interfaz que se utilizan para la redirección lo que permite path traversal del lado del cliente con un solo clic que conduce a CSRF en la página Administración de usuarios de la consola del sistema.

Mattermost versions 9.9.x <= 9.9.1, 9.5.x <= 9.5.7, 9.10.x <= 9.10.0, 9.8.x <= 9.8.2 fail to sanitize user inputs in the frontend that are used for redirection which allows for a one-click client-side path traversal that is leading to CSRF in User Management page of the system console.
