Mattermost Authorization and Validation Flaws

A remote code execution vulnerability (CVSS 9.9) that allows authenticated users. Critical severity with potential for significant impact on affected systems.

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.5, 9.11.x <= 9.11.15, 10.8.x <= 10.8.0, 10.7.x <= 10.7.2, 10.6.x <= 10.6.5 fail to properly retrieve requestorInfo from playbooks handler for guest users which allows an attacker access to the playbook run.

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.5, 9.11.x <= 9.11.15, 10.8.x <= 10.8.0, 10.7.x <= 10.7.2, 10.6.x <= 10.6.5 fail to properly enforce channel member management permissions in playbook runs, allowing authenticated users without the 'Manage Channel Members' permission to add or remove users from public and private channels by manipulating playbook run participants when the run is linked to a channel.
