## Overview

Mattermost versions 9.10.x <= 9.10.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.1, 9.5.x <= 9.5.9 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 Playbooks

## Affected packages

- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 < 8.0.0-20240926115259-20ed58906adc`

## Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 8.0.0-20240926115259-20ed58906adc`
