Mattermost <=8.1.10, 9.5.2, 9.6.0 DoS via oversized request path
CVE-2024-22091 Published on April 26, 2024

Excessive resource consumption due to lack to request path size limits
Mattermost versions 8.1.x <= 8.1.10, 9.6.x <= 9.6.0, 9.5.x <= 9.5.2 and 8.1.x <= 8.1.11 fail to limit the size of a request path that includes user inputs which allows an attacker to cause excessive resource consumption, possibly leading to a DoS via sending large request paths
