Descriptions

Mattermost versions 10.4.x <= 10.4.2, 10.5.x <= 10.5.0, 9.11.x <= 9.11.10 fail to properly validate permissions for the API endpoint /plugins/playbooks/api/v0/signal/keywords/ignore-thread, allowing any user or attacker to delete posts containing actions created by the Playbooks bot, even without channel access or appropriate permissions.

Mattermost versions 10.4.x <= 10.4.2, 10.5.x <= 10.5.0, 9.11.x <= 9.11.10 fail to properly validate permissions for the API endpoint /plugins/playbooks/api/v0/signal/keywords/ignore-thread, allowing any user or attacker to delete posts containing actions created by the Playbooks bot, even without channel access or appropriate permissions.

These are all security issues fixed in the govulncheck-vulndb-0.0.20250424T181457-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.
