CVE-2026-10106 Mattermost CVE debrief

CVE-2026-10106 is a vulnerability in Mattermost that allows an authenticated user without access to a private channel to trigger interactive post actions on posts in that channel. The vulnerability occurs because Mattermost fails to verify that the channel referenced in an action cookie matches the channel of the target post. This allows an authenticated user without access to a private channel to trigger interactive post actions on posts in that channel via a cookie obtained from any accessible channel. The vulnerability affects Mattermost versions 11.7.x <= 11.7.2, 11.6.x <= 11.6.4, and 10.11.x <= 10.11.19.
